66 'ALICE, WHERE ART THOU?” LICE, Where Art Thou?' Romance; sung by

Signor Gardoni, and written by Wellington Guernsey. Music by J. Ascher. "Mr. Ascher, whose fame as a writer of pianoforte music is European, has proved himself in Alice, where art thou?' as consummate an artist as a vocal writer as he is renowned as a composer for the pianoforte. The melody is graceful, flowing, and cri. ginal, full of the most original feeling and thought. It has been sung by Sims Reeves, Gardoni, Mr. Tennant, Mr Perren, Mr. Tedder, Mr. Melchor Winter, and all the leading tenors of the day. Two editions of this romance have been printed--one in B flat for ladies' voices, and the other in D flat for tenors. Altogether, we have seldom met with a composition embodying all the elements of popularity in so great a degree as M. Ascher's romance of Alice, who art thou?' and one that must, on its merits alone, become the most popular song of the present day."-(Irish Times.)

To the Editor of the MUSICAL WORLD.

MLLE. TITIENS presents her compliments to the Editor of the MUSICAL WORLD, and, in reference to a paragraph that appeared last week in his valuable journal, begs to state that there is no foundation for the report of her being engaged at Drury Lane Theatre for the coming season.

His teeming brain, like bright champagne,
With sparkling fancies brimming over,
Will, like the wine, make others shine
And many a latent gem discover.

With smiles that warm, and words that charm,
He cheers, where trembling souls would falter,
And wins the love of many a heart
Time cannot change, or absence alter;
Fame adds fresh laurels to his brow
Growing with every fresh endeavour,
While hearts can feel the "Power of Love,

The name of "Balfe" must live for ever!-CLOPÉE.

A Correspondent from BRENTFORD writes: "Mendelssohn's Elijah was recently given at the Town Hall, under The soprano solos were the auspices of the Brentford Literary Club. divided between Mrs. Harriette Lee, Miss Saunders, and Miss Martin, all of whom acquitted themselves ably, especially Miss Martin, in 'Hear ye, Israel.' The contralto part was sustained entirely by Miss Palmer Lisle, who was encored in 'O rest in the Lord.' Mr. W. Evans, the tenor, was encored in Then shall the righteous.' Mr. Cross, besides The chorus, conducting, sang the whole of the music of Elijah. when we consider that they had only a piano to sustain them, are entitled to praise. Mr. Gardner was the accompanyist. The Hall was crowded to the doors, and no one left till the last bar was finished."

St. Petersburg.—(From a Correspondent.)—According to the terms of his contract, Signor Verdi is bound to produce his new opera, La Forza del Destino, by the middle of January, at the latest. The libretto, written by Piave, and founded on a Spanish drama, is said to be highly interesting. The soprano parts are intended for Signore Lagrua and Fioretti; the tenor part for Tamberlik; the baritone and bass parts for Graziani, Debassini and Marini. Verdi has composed, also, some ballet music,which, should circumstances require the adoption of such a course, may be omitted without prejudice to the opera. Report speaks very favourably of this newest production of the prolific master's pen. Verdi himself says that he has made fewer concessions than is usual with him to suit the taste of the general public, but that, in this instance, he has written a work which can bear the strictest criticism.

AMSTERDAM.-C. A. Bertelsmann, founder of the Liedertafel, “Eutonia," which he directed for many years, died here on the 20th ult. He was born at Soest, in Westphalia, but selected Amsterdam as the He was not only distinguished as an field of his professional exertions. excellent conductor, but as a scientific musician.
