NOVELLO'S GLEE.HIVE, A Collection of popular Glees and Madrigals, in Vocal Score, with ad, lib, Acoompaniment

for Pianoforte, COMPLETE IN THREE VOLUMES,

Handsomely Bound in Cloth, Gilt Lettering, price 8s. each Volume. PREFACE TO THIRD AND LAST VOLUME.

IN the Three Volumes of Novello's " Glee-Hive" are stored EIGHTY-THREE of the best Glees and Madrigals, they are presented in a convenient and portable form, at a price to place them within the power of every Glee- lover who may wish to possess them. Classes will be enabled to select many programmes of sufficient variety from this selection; and it is hoped that many a summer-ramble and picnic will be made "most musical" by the presence of Novello's " Glee-Hive" well used. It should be remembered that the effect on these latter occasions is better produced by some familiar favorite, courageously trolled forth by those who feel at ease by fiequent rehearsal, than by some less-well-executed novelty; it is, therefore, deemed that the present collection is sufficiently extensive, but if, in the course of time, a further extension should be needed, the weekly issue can be then resumed,
