Music.
maestoso in common tiiiiey which leads , through in octaves , tc * the first waltz , a very graceful composition , fully kept in regard by the four very delightful morceaux that follow it . Combining as they do facility of execution : with purity of motivo , and neatness of arrangement , these charming brochures must , we are certain , find their place on the pianoforte of every music-admiring lady and gentleman for a very long time to come .
The Niagara Galop , by P . Gr . Tinney . London : Robert ¦ WvQllivjer , 19 , Old Bond-street , Piccadilly . — -So , another comi > osition by our very clever and long-remembered acquaintance Tinney ; and if we had a regard , and a great regard too , for him previously , the publication under consideration is not likely to detract therefrom . Its transatlantic denomination would lead you , at first thought , to imagine that it was merely a vehicle fori some
cominonplace melody or melodies of negro origin . Nothing of the kindit is as original ^ down , pianist , and play it , then you wilt acknowledge with us that it is rushing , gushing , leaping , and sweeping as the mighty and overwhelming waters from whence the composer has taken its name . It is in the key of r in the : earlier instance , but is pleasingly varied hy diverging into the sub-dominant b flat , which is ixx its turn quitted for a resumption of the original signature . Altogether Mr . Tinney may congratulate himself tipon having added another bijou to the casket of modern dance-composition .
TeUno % oh . Breeze/—Song , imitated from the Italian , written and composedby . Anne d ^ RiCKEn . London : Robert W . Ollivier , 19 , Old Bondstreet , Piccadilly . — -Very sweet lines wedded by the authoress herself to melody of most appropriate character in six-eight time . The accompaniment is flowing , simple , and easy of accomplishment . The only thing we
have to find fault with is the key , a , four flats , for though the notation is so arranged as to be beneath the fingers of the youthful performer , yet the sight of the terrific sigma is enough to frighten the uninitiated from looking * sufficiently into the composition for its proper appreciation . As an inducement to examine the music we quote the poetry : —
" Breeze of the still night blowing ; Shadows yet darker growing , Their deeper tints are throwing , Around my lady fair . Tell not , 0 breeze ! whose sighing On thy soft wing comes flying ; "Who , on the green turf lying , Whispers the evening air . " Biver , like silver gleaniing , Under the moon's pale beaming , Flow where my lady , dreaming , Slumbers beneath its ray . Onward , thy course still keeping , Wake her not , calmly sleeping ; Tell her not , dream , whose weeping Pleats with thy wave away / '
