MR. DRESSLER’s AND MR. F. PELZER’s,
Opera Concert Room, Wednesday Morning, May 15.
This was not very fully attended, but Mr. Dressler and Mr. Pelzer on their respective instruments very much delighted their audience.
MISS DORRELL’s,
At the residence of Sir Giffin Wilson, Stratford Place, Wednesday Evening, May 15.
Miss Dorrell, late a pupil of the Royal Academy of Music, performed Hummel’s piano-forte concerto in A minor, also the principal part in his military septet, in a very correct, neat manner. The rest of the concert was vocal; among the pieces were ‘Ah! come rapida!’ and a Tyrolienne, by Mad. Cinti, an aria, by Signor Zuchelli, a duet by the latter and Signor De Begnis, a serenade by Mr. Bennett, composed by Lord Burghersh, &c. A numerous and elegant company attended this concert.
M. KIALLMARK’s,
Opera Concert Room, Thursday Morning, May 16.
The first movement of Moscheles’ concerto, No. 5, a concerto by Mendelssohn, and the piano-forte part of a trio by Hummel, were played with much brilliancy by M. Kiallmark. M. Dressler performed a flute solo. The concert was otherwise chiefly vocal; and except what was assigned to Mad. Cinti, was far from laudable. A song, in the programme, named ‘The Rhine,’ is too palpable an imitation of Neukomm’s ‘Sea,’ to pass without a stricture; and as if it had been intended to expose the author of it, the model was subsequently produced.
