22. An Album Sketch by Mendelssohn. ([See page 210].)
MRS. MOSCHELES
is respectfully invited to a musical evening party to be given
on Monday, the 19th of October, at 6 o’clock precisely, in the
rooms of the Gewandhaus, by
FELIX MENDELSSOHN BARTHOLDY,
there to hear his 42d Psalm, with Orchestra, his Overture to
“Fingal’s Cave,” and Moscheles’s Overture to “Joan of Arc.”
Moscheles, the “Father of Pianists” (as Fink calls him in the
“Musical Gazette”), will play his G minor Concerto, as also
Bach’s Triple Concerto, with Madame Schumann and Dr. F.
Mendelssohn Bartholdy, in addition to which he will perform
some of his characteristic Studies.

It is requested that this paper be presented at the doors;
should, however, this request not be complied with, Professor
Moscheles will have to proceed to London in order to receive
that applause which here can but be incomplete.
An answer by return of post will oblige.
