DUETS, PIANO-FORTE.
- GROSSES CONCERT-STUCK, (Pièce de Concert,) Op. 47, composé par MAYSEDER, arrangé par CHARLES CZERNY. (Wessel and Co.)
- DUET on a DANISH MELODY, composed for two performers, by FRED. KULAU. (Wessel and Co.)
No. 1 is the work noticed above, as arranged for a single performer. We like it better in its present form, for the parts are more dispersed, and the melody comes out more distinctly. The upper part of this is very difficult, but the lower is easy, the duet therefore will very well suit an elder and younger sister, or two players whose musical advancement is unequal.
No. 2 is Kulau’s Recollections of Odensee, in two quick, pleasing, and very practicable movements. We will not answer for the airs being, bonâ fide, of Danish origin, but whatever their birth-place, they are lively, pretty, and the superior master often peeps out while he means to be only simple and familiar.
- QUADRILLE sur des motifs de HEROLD, de l’opéra Zampa, arrangée par HENRY LEMOINE. No. 1. (Wessel and Co.)
- No. 2, Ditto. ditto. ditto.
SOME of the best subjects from an opera which has been too much lauded on the continent, are here arranged in an easy but effective manner.
