THE MUSICAL TIMES.-NOVEMBER 1, 1859.

HANDEL COLLEGE. A SHORT time since a project was set on foot to

establish an institution for the maintenance and edu- cation of the orphans of musicians of all classes and countries resident in Great Britain. The institution was named the " Handel College," and was intended as an appropriate moinument to commemorate the centenary of the death of the great musician, wlose compositions have done so much for music and mu- sicians generally throughout the country. The idea of establishing such an institution originated in the fact that every branch of the fine arts in this country is signalised by an asylum of a similar nature, except the art of music,which certainly has contributed more than all others to social enjoyment and to the advance- ment of kindly feeling among all classes of the people. It has been calculated that there are upwards of 20,000 persons in this country who obtain a livelihood by teaching music. It is, however, perhaps the most precarious of all occupations, since a temporary illness may at any time throw the teacher out of em- ployment, and, without any fault on his part, may render it impossible to provide for his family. It is estimated that two thirds of these musicians are married and have families. Moreover, among the .hundreds of orphans who are unsuccessfiul candidates at our different asylums every election, a large portion of these are children of musicians. There are ample reasons, then, for the establishment of so desirable an institution as that which is now proposed, and we cannot doubt that the supporters of the art will come forward with funds to assist the undertakiJng. A plot of ground (the value of which is estimated at ?5000) has been offered gratuitously, and Mr. Owen Jones, likewise gratuitously, has consented to act as the architect. This gentleman has already submitted the general and sectional plans of the proposed building; so that the foundation of the " Handel College" is no longer a matter of speculation, but a fact agreed upon, awaiting only sufficient funds to take its place among the most useful and deserving charities of the land.

Upwards of one million of persons attend musical performances in London alone every year. In almost every house in the three kingdoms, music is taught, played, or sung. At every festival, music is the grand element of success, and no public ceremony is observed without the accompaniment of music. It is the vehicle of our thanksgiving in joy, and of our lamentation in sorrow. It is proverbial with what readiness all musicians come forward to lend their talents in furthering every charitable object, and more sums of money have-probably been raised by their aid than by any other. Surely these considerations should lead us all to contribute bountifully to the support of the families of those through whose instrumentality so much good has been done, and so much happiness and pleasure is procured. The Vocal Association, of which Mr. Benedict is the chairman, have undertaken to superintend the business details of the institution; and it is intended that all available means shall be adopted, by concerts and otherwise, to raise the necessary amount for carrying out this most laudable under- taking. The great musician whose name the college bears contributed during his lifetime no less than ?10,299 to the funds of the Foundling Hospital, by the performance of the Messiah alone. In 1784, the proceeds of the Handel Commemoration at West- minster Abbey, amounting to ?7000, were given to charities. Handel himself on several separate occa- sions contributed ?1000 in aid of the funds " For the Sons of the Clergy," by different performances of his

works. 'hese facts speak for themselves, and it seems unnecessary further to remind the public what music has done for charitable institutions. It is therefore hoped that all classes will now show their gratitude by doing their utmost to forward the object in view.

TO CORRESPONDENTS. We cannot undertake to return offered contributions; the authors, there-

fore, utill do well to retain copies. We would request those who send us country newspapers, wishing us to

read particular paragraphs, to mark the passage, by cutting a slip in the paper near it.

The late hour at which Advertisements reach uis, interferes much with their proper classification.

Colored Envelopes aresent to all ubscribers whose payment in advance is exhausted. The paper will be discontinued where the Subscriber neglects to renew. We again remind those who are disappointed in getting back numbers, that only the music pages are stereotyped, and of the rest of the paper, only sufficient are printed to supply the current sale.

Notices of c, ncerts and other information supplied by our friends in the country, must be forwarded as early as possible after the occurrence, otherwise they cannot be inserted. Our correspondents must spe- cifictlly denote the date of each concert, for without such date no notice can be taken of the performance. All communications must be authenticated by the proper name and address of the writer, not necessarily for publication.

ASrief (ihlroticle of the Iast aIonth. ABEIIDEEN.-On the 30th of September, the members

of the Aberdeen Choral Society gave a private concert to their friends, in the Mechanics' Hall. The programme comprised glees, madrigals, choruses, part-songs, &c., which were sung with spirit and precision, and the con- cert was very satisfactory in all respects.. Miss Wilson presided at the pianoforte, and Mr. Melvin conducted the performance.

ABERFORD.-On the 11th of October, Miss Wilson, of Hull, gave one of her interesting concerts, in the National School-room, assisted by Messrs. Plowman, Hird, Hudson, Holmes, and Turner, from the Wilberforce Institution for the Blind, York.

BATH.-The preliminary meeting of a newly-established Choral Society took place at Bath on the 26th of Sep- tember. Thle attendance was very numerous. The Mayor of Bath took the chair, and after a few remarks as to the necessity of such a society, &c., Mr. Macfarlane, the con- ductor, read the rules which he had framed for the guidance and well-being of the society. Each rule was passed unanimously, and upwards of 100 members en- rolled themselves before the meeting separated.

BEDFOnD.-The Harmonic Society gave a concert of secular music on the 19th ult. Instrumental pieces by Mozart, Mendelssohn, Corelli, &c., with madrigals, glees, and part-songs by Morley, Weber, Hatton, &c., formed the principal part of the programme. " Now is the montih of Mayinlg;" Balfe's "Riflemen, form," sung by Miss Haines; and " The Sailor Boy," a composition of the conductor, Mr. Havergal, sung by Miss Goetze, were encored.

BUCKINGHAM.-Tlhe members of a musical class in this place have presented their teacher, Mr. Platt, with Novello's Glee-Hive, handsomely bound in three vols., and also an ivory baton, as a token of their gratitude for the efficient and satisfactory manner in which he has con- ducted the class.

BURY.-The meetings of Mr. Spark's Bury Vocal Society have already commenced. They are in future to he held fortnightly, instead of weekly, in the Town Hall. The object of the society is to afford facilities for the practice and cultivation of part-music. The first concert took place on tile 6th ult.. when a number of choral pieces were performed by about fifty voices with great precision and taste, and several solos were very agreeably sung.

CANTERBURY.-The Glee and Madrigal Society met for the first time this season, on the 18th of October, at the

THE MUSICAL TIMES.-NOVEMBER 1, 1859.

Guildhall Assembly-room, which has been newly deco- rated in a very tasteful style. The musical arrangements are entrusted to Mr. C. Lyon, who has the assistance of a very effective orchestra. The vocalists are Miss Delahaye, Messrs. Plant, Newsome, and Gough, with the aid of Messrs. White, Barnard, and Adrnans, amateurs. The concert on this, the opening night, was much enjoyed by the company, and the music was well executed.

CHATHAM AND ROCHESTER.-A new Harmonic Society is being instituted in these towns. The objects of the society are, the practice and performance of classical music, sacred and secular, on a large scale; uniting if possible all the musical amateurs in the locality. It has long been felt that such an association was wanted in towns so large as these, where, in a population numbering its tens of thousands, and possessing acknowledged su- perior musical talent, no party has hitherto been formed of sufficient strength to adequately represent the works of the great masters. The originators are sanguine in their expectations that the society will meet with such support as will render it a great success, and a positive benefit to the locality generally. The proceeds of public rehearsals and performances will (after the necessary expenses are paid) be devoted to charitable purposes, irrespective of party or sect. The society will consist of musical and subscribing members: the former comprising all those who are capable of assisting with their talents at the rehearsals and public performances; and the latter, those who with their subscriptions will enable its objects to be carried out in an efficient manner. At the public per- formances or concerts, the best artistes that can be obtained will be engaged for the principal parts, and at the full rehearsals, those parts will be taken by the best amateurs in the towns. The following officers have been appointed: -musical conductor, Herr Kappey, band-master of the Chatham Royal Marines; leader, Mr. T. Whiffin; secre- tary, Mr. Edmund G. Ford.

CHELTENHAI.-On Monday, October 17th, a very suc- cessful concert took place at the Montpellier Rotunda, bv the Glee and Madrigal Society. The music was de- lightfully rendered, and we were glad to perceive so good an audience. Mr. R. Groves Morris, of Gloucester, ple- sided ably at the pianoforte.

CHERTSEY.-The third session of the Choral Association commenced on the 3rd of October. The opening address was delivered by Mr. Samuel Gee, the conductor. This successful association is now seeking extension in the towns and villages of the neighbourhood, by establishing branch classes.

COCKERMOUTH.-The members of the Church Choir had their third concert in the Assembly-rooms, on the 30th ult., and so great was the number of persons unable to obtain admission, that it was found necessary to repeat the concert on the following night. The first part was a selection of sacred music; and the second consisted chiefly of glees and madrigals. Among other pieces, we see that the "' Last Rose of Summer," one of the " Irish Melodies" arranged as a quartett, was sung. Many other of the " Melodies," less known than this, and now for the first time harmonized for four voices by Balfe, might be introduced with effect into concerts of this description.

CROSBY HALL (Bishopsgate-street).-On the 31st of September, the Tonic Sol-fa Choral Union (conducted by Mr. J. J. Mears) sang a selection of glees, madrigals, choruses, and part-songs, from Novello's Musical Times and GCle-Hive, several of which were deservedly encored.

DARLIN-TON. - An organ, lately erected by Messrs. Gray and Davison, in St. Mary's Catholic Church, Crook, was opened on Sunday, the 23rd ult. The instrument is a fine-toned one, and reflects credit on the builders. Cas- sali's Mass in F was performed in a very creditable man- ner by a choir under the superintendence of Mr. Charles F. Hall, the organist, who presided on the occasion.

DARTON.-On Sunday, the 25th of September, full Cathedral Service was performed at the Parish Church.

Two impressive sermons were delivered by the Rev. H. R. Alder, of St. Mary's Church, Barnsley, who also intoned the service. Mrs. Sunderland, assisted by an efficient choir from Barnsley and the neighbourhood, was present, and performed a selection of sacred music in the most able manner. The various stops of the new organ (which has just been erected by Messrs. Conacher and Co., of Huddersfield) were skilfully exhibited by Mr. J. W. Asquith, organist of the Parish Church, Barnsley, who presided.

DERBY.-The first of a series of Concerts for the People took place at the Temperance Hall, on the 21st of October, under the management of Mr. T. A. Johnson. The per- formers were Miss Dolby, Mr. Sainton (violin), M. Paqiue (violoncello), and Herr Meyer Lutz (pianist). The series will consist of ten concerts, and the terms of subscription are so low that a large attendance may be expected.- THE first concert, for the season, of the Harmonic So- ciety took place at the Temperance Hall, on the 14th ult. The society has made a great advance beyond their previous performances, and, with scarcely an ex- ception, all the singers and players were quite at home in their respective departments. The choruses, in the se- lections from Judas Maccabeus, which formed the first part of the programme, were sung with great spirit and power. The principal singers were Miss Belfield, Mrs Freeston, and Messrs. Carnal Evans and Watson. The second part was made up of miscellaneous secular pieces. Mr. C. Horsley conducted.

DEWSBURY.-An organ, recently erected by Messrs. Halsham and Sons, of Birmingham, in the Methodist Chapel, King-street, was opened on the 22nd of Sep- tember, by Mr. J. H. Frobisher, organist of the Parish Church, Halifax.' The instrument, which is a C organ, has a separate swell and pedal notes. It possesses a powerful tone, and is rich and full. it is in all respects an excellent model for a small chapel.

ELY.-The Amateur Musical Society gave their third concert on the 3rd of October. Principal vocalists, Miss More and Mr. Taylor. It is very gratifying to see the progress this society has made, under the management of their leader and conductor, Mr. J. Skelding.

EXETER HALL.-MR. J. ROBINSON'S CHOIR.-This choir, which has been lately organized by Mr. James Robinson, and numbers about 80 voices, gave its third public concert, at Exeter Hall, on the 19th ult., which was attended by a very crowded audience. The pro- gramme consisted chiefly of madrigals, glees, choruses, &c., with a few solos and instrumental pieces interspersed. Mr. Robinson has fortunately secured' a great many excellent voices for his choir, and a little careful training will soon produce a most favorable result. The alto voices are particularly good and strong, as well as the sopranos. A well-written duet, composed by Mr. Robinson, was sung by Mrs. Tritton and Miss Riseam. The next concert will take place on the 16th of November.

HASTINGS AND ST. LEONARD's.-The Glee and Mad- rigal Society now holds its meetings every Wednesday evening. The members are making good progress, and are preparing themselves for several public occasions during the season. Mr. E. Moore is the conductor, and Mr. Foster the secretary.

LEEK (Staffordshire).-At the Anniversary Festival of the Wesleyan Sunday-Schools, upwards of 1000 children joined in the music, which comp ised, among other pieces, a chorale composed by Miss M. C. Boyce, of Chertsey, and a chorus by Mr. Samuel Gee.

LEYTON (Essex).-A concert of sacred and secular music was given at the National Schools, on the 18th of October, under the patronage of the Rev. J. D. Birt. Among the songs in the first part deserving special notice were, ' Remember now thy Creator "--Miss Pownall; and "I know that my Redeemer liveth "--Miss Clarke. The concerted music was sustained by the members of the Leyton Choral Society, who sang with great correctness

and ability. 'Amonr the glees deserving praise were, <, Hail, smiling morn," " Spring's delights," and " Again the morning fair," a composition of the accompanyist. The whole was under the management of the conductor of the Leyton Choral Society, Mr. A. J. Hubbard.

MANCHESTER.-Another concert has been given at Mr- Henshaw's Blind Asylum, at which the progress of the pupils under the instruction of Mr. Hiles was very mani- fest. The programme consisted of selections from Men- delssohn's Elijah.

LELBOURNE.-HANDEL CENTENARY CELEBRATION.- Our friends in this far-off country have not been beiiind the rest of the world in paying honor to the great composer. Two concerts were given, at Melbourne, by the Philhar- monic Society, on the 9th and 11th of August, to com- memorate the centenary of Handel's death. At the first of these concerts, a selection from Samson, Judas, and Israel in Egypt was performed, and a very large and fashionable audience was attracted to the Exhibition Building upon the occasion. A monster orchestra was erected, and every available means were taken to ensure an efficient performance. Before commencing the programme, and on the entrance of His Excellency the Governor, the National Anthem was sung. The principal singers were Miss Hamilton, who, it appears, is now the leading soprano in sacred music, the Misses Macarthy, Mrs. Hancock, Mr. Farquharson, and Mr. Ewart. The choruses, under the baton of Mr. Russell, were most effective, and the choristers, who seemed to feel that they had to sustain the honor of the Society, sang with spirit and precision. The instrumental band, led by Mr. King, was very efficient, and Mr. Pringle, in accompanying upon the ,organ, exhibited much taste and a complete command of his instrument.-At the second- concert, the Aiessiah was performed, when the building was crowded in all parts. The solo singers were the same as at the first concert, and deserved the highest praise for the manner in which they executed the music allotted to them. The band and chorus played and sang with irreproachable accuracy, and the festival went off with the greatest eclat.

PENZANCE.- Mr. John H. Nunn, R.A.M., has been appointed to the fine organ in St. Mary's Church, Penzance, in the room of Mr. Viner, who has left the country for America.

RYE.-The Harmonic Society's first concert took place, on the 11th ult., at the Assembly-rooms, George Hotel. The programme was mainly supported by Messrs. Lyon and Gough, of Canterbury.

SACRED HARMONIC SOCIETY, EXETER HALL.-The committee have announiced that the weekly rehearsals in the Large Hall were resumed on Friday, 14th October, and that the concert season will commence this month. During the season, the most admired works in the society's redpertoire will be given, together with some favorite com- positions which have been less frequently performed. The committee have also under consideration some works not hitherto performed by the society. They have further announced the following evenings as those on which the subscription concerts will probably be given:-Fridays, November 25th, December 9th, January 13th, February 3rd, March 2nd and 23rd, Wednesday, April 4th, and Fridays, April 27th, May 1tth, and June 1st. The com- mittee state that arrangements have been made for holding a series of great choral meetings, during the season, of the choristers forming the London division of the Handel Festival Choir, to take place at Exeter Hall.

SURREY MUSIC HALL.-A series of attractive concerts have been given during the past month at this agreeable place of entertainment. Miss E. Spiller, Miss Clara Mackenzie, Madame Cunyngham, Miss Lizzie Wilson, and Mr. P. Standish, have been the principal vocal per- formers. Miss Spiller has gained much applause for her songs, and she has been particularly successful in "' Robert, toi que j'aime." Miss NM ackenzie's fine contralto voice is admirably adapted to oratorio music, and she would prove

of the greatest use in sacred music generally. Her " Il segreto " is a very finished per formance. These two ladies have attained to much perfection in their duets,

fwhich have been continually encored at the above concerts. Miss Wilson also deserves credit for her execution of various songs.

SWAVESEY.-Mr. E'Astes, of the University of Cam- bridge, gave his Musical Sketches here on the 10th ult., illustrated by dioramic views. This gentleman possesses goo(d capabilities for such an entertainment. His finished style of singing was much praised, and the songs were illustrated by some excellent dioramic views.

TESTIMONIAL TO MR. CIPRIANI POTTER.-An adver- tisement appears to the effect that the professors and students, present and past, of the Royal Academy are invited to contribute to a testimonial to be presented to Mr. Cipriani Potter, upon his resignation of" Pirincipal" of the Academy, as an expression of professional admiration and personal regard. A committee of the professors has been appointed to receive subscriptions. From the estimation in which Mr. Potter has always been held among the profession, we have no doubt that a very substantial tribute will be offered upon this occasion.

TODMORDEN.-The Todmorden Harmonic Society gave an attractive concert in the Odd Fellows' Hall, on the 19th ult., to a crowded audience. Miss Hiles, oa Liverpool, sang several solos with care and finish. Miss Harley, Miss Sutcliffe, and Mr. Delavanti, were the other plincipal singers. The glees and part-songs, with some slight ex- ceptions, were well performed. Mr. H. Greenwood ac- companied on the pianoforte.

TROWBRIDGE.-PEOPLE'S CONCERTS.-The first of the series for 1859-60 was given by Mr. F. H. Hallett, on the 5th ult., at the Court Hall. The music was selected from the works of Rossini, Bellini, Verdi, &c. The in- strumental portion was well executed by Mr. Hallett's Sextette Band. The vocalists were Mr. Collins, of Bristol Cathedral, and Mrs. Darby, of the Bath Concerts. Two pianoforte solos were performed by Mr. Foot, of Bath. Messrs Mlillington nnd Oram officiated as accompanvists on the piano. The music altogether was ve:y effectively rendered, and reflects credit on Mr. Hallett, who caters so well for the entertainment of the Trowbridge public.- Mr. HEPPENSTALL, late of Egham, has been appointed organist of the Parish Church, in the room of the late Mr. S. S. Righton.

WANSTEAD.-Mrs. Perry has been appointed teacher of music to the Infant Orphan Asylum. In our last number, this lady's name was by mistake spelt " Percy."

WARMINSTER,-The Choral Society of this town held its second meeting for the season, on the 10th ult., in thle National School-room. This society meets weekly for the practice of sacred and secular music alternately, and num- bers about 50 or 60 members. Visitors are admitted on these occasions by a small pamyent in aid of the choral fund. Mr. Dyer, as usual, conducted, and Mr. Feltham presided at the pianoforte.

WESTBROMWICH.-In consequence of the want expe- rienced in this town of a suitable room for public enter- tainments, Mr. Adams has, at considerable outlay, adapted St. George's Hall for the purpose, which was inaugurated on the 25th ult., when there was a performance of the ,Messiah in the morning, and a miscellaneous concert in the evening. The committee and patrons comprised a long list of the noblemen and gentry of the neighbourhood. The principal vocalists engaged were Madame Enderssohn Mrs. Lockey, and Messrs. Lockey, Weiss, and Richards. The music was conducted by Mr. Stockley.

WINCHESTER.-An interesting concert took place, on the 19th ult., at St. John's House, being the first of the season given by the New Vocal Union, formed in this city by Messrs. Snary, A. Conduit, Corps, and P. Cross, lay- vicars of the Cathedral. In addition to the excellent glees performed by these vocalists, the concert included a

WISBECH.-The Church Singing Class gave their second concert on the 27th of September. The programme was composed of sacred and secular music, selected principally from Novello's cheap publications.

The object was the purchase of a hlrmonium for the Boys' Sunday-School.

WOLVERHAMPTON.-A concert has been given here by the Messrs. Hayward, at which the following artistes were engaged : Mdlle. Titiens, Signor Giuglini, Signor Badiali, Mdlle.
