"The Winter being over,' part-song "-composed by Ellen Avery (Charles Jefferys). The words of this part-songwritten in 1653, by one Ann Collins, offer a quaint mixture of matter-of-fact and poetry, The music is melodious, characteristic, and remarkably well written. Miss Avery should be encouraged to proceed; her feeling and taste being alike unquestionable. "The Singer's Library of Concerted Music"-edited by John Hullah (Addison and Hollier). No. 23 of the Secular Division contains a part-song, the words by Charles Swain, the music by Maria Tiddeman-"If thou speak'st though snows surround thee." This is quite as neatly written as the partsong of Miss Avery; but the melody is hardly so attractive. In addition to the foregoing, the same number includes Samuel Webbe's catch, "Zephyr, I can tell you where,” which was scarcely worth reviving. |
