€¢ Come unto Shore—Yellow Sandy,” a favourite 
Song in the Tempeft ; ii ie as a Rondo, 
Sor the Piano-forte, by George Saffery. 15. 
We much admire the ftyle in which Mr. 
Saffery has dilated this delightful little 
melody of Purcell’s into a piano- forte 
rondo. The compofition, in its prefent 
form; will, we doubt not, meet a very fa- 
vourable reception ; fince, while it is cal. 
culated both to pleafe a improve, it in- 
troduces us to an o/d acquaintance recom- 
mended by anew advantage. 
AA Colleé&ion of Scottifo Airs, harmonized for 
the Voice and ide forte: with introduc- 
tory and concluding Sympbonies, and with 
Accompaniments for a Violin, and Violincello, 
by Fofeph Haydn, Muf. Dod. Vol. I. 11. 35. 
Dr. Haydn, in his harmonizations, ac- 
companiments, and fymphonic additions 
to thefe melodies, has, in general, been 
elegantly elaborate, In an advertifement 
prifixed to the work, Mr. hyte, the 
publifher, very properly expreffes his thanks 
to Mr. Sime, for the tafe with which he 
has formed the feleftion ; for certainly, con- 
fidering the number of the airs comprifed 
in this volume, we have fewer exceptions 
to make in the great points of elegance 
and beauty than in any other felc&ion of 
the fame bulk; and we doubt not but the 
proprietor will find in the fale of the 
work an ample return for the handfome 
and liberal ityle in which he has brought 
it out. 
Fwelve Dances and Duetts, for two Performers 
on one Piano-forte 3 compofed and infcribed to 
the young Ladies at Winchefter-houfe, by T° 
Effex. 45. 
Thefe dances, chofen from site the 
moft pleafing and popular melodies in their 
kind, form, in their prefent ftate, moft ad- 
vantageous exercifes for begioners. on the 
piano-forte ; fince, by adapting thermfelves 
to the powers of almoft the youngelt prac- 
titioner, they afford the pier poffibie 
Opportunity for attaining accuracy in the 
great and important acquifition of tzme. 
Anthem. §* Iwill arife and go to my Father my 
for four Voices; compafed, and dedicated to 
the Henourable Fobn Spencer, by James Hen- 
ry Leffler. 15. 
Mr. Leffler has evinced in the prefent 
anthem no mean talents for this fpecics of 
a ae Mac. No. 123.

compofition. It afforded him an oppor- 
tunity to difplay his fcience and powers in 
combination ; and he has well availed him- 
felf of it. The melody is fmooth and 
pleafing, and the organ accompaniment is 
judicioufly deduced from the feore. 
Eighteen favourite Preludes. for the Piano-forte, 
fet in the principal Major and Minor Keys, 
with a Cadence to each Key 5 compsfed and de» 
Signed for the improvement of Performers in 
general, by F. Forffe. 5. 
Mr. Jouffe (the author of the Harmonic 
Tree, of which we lately {poke in fuch 
commendatory terms) has furnifhed inthe 
prefent publication an excellent and im- 
proving fet of Preludes. Some of them 
exhibit much tafe as well as novelty of 
conception; and they will all be found 
highly ufetul to thofe who with to DEES 
their auditors with a favourable idea of 
their facility and command of hand. 
“« Fly playful Lovers,” a favourite Song, with 
an Accompaniment for the Piano-forte or Harpy 
compofed by L. D. Michell. 1s. 6d. 
This fong, originally an Italian one, 
poflefies many traits of tafte, elegance and 
exprefion much beyond what we find in 
our every-day productions, Simplicity is 
its predominant feature, and as much cf- 
fect is produced with as little labour as 
we have ever witnefled. 
An Original Air with Variations for the Pianos 
forte, or Harp, by 8. Hale. 1s. 
We do not profefs to recolle& this Ori- 
ginal Air; and are ata lofs to know whe- 
ther Mr. Hale would have us underftand., 
that it is an o/d or a wesw one; it is, how- 
ever, whether zew or old, pleafing in its 
‘ftyle, and the variations are written with 
an eafe and familiarity that will certainly 
bring it into requeft with thofe who are in 
the earlier fiages of practice. 
Kotzebue’s admired Serenade, in the play of Count 
Benyoufky. Tranflated and compofed far the 
Harp or Pians-forte, iy Augufius Voigt, 
Tee Gd. 
This is a pleafing trie; more we 
cannot fay of it; more Mr. Voigt, 
probably would not wifh us to fay. The 
paffages are prettily conceived, and by no 
means unconnected; while the effect of 
the whole feems to keep pace wath the 
defign of the compoter,
