"Mr. Hogarth's assiduity in collecting materials of musical history, his judgment in selecting what most deserved public notice, and his general skill and taste in criticism, are already well known and appreciated. A new work from his hand, therefore, in which a rapid view should be given of the origin, progress, and history of the musical drama to our own day, cannot fail to arrest more than common attention. Such is the work before us, and it is sure to fill up a very popular link in the chain of musical publication."

LITERARY GAZETTE. "Under Mr. Hogarth's pleasant guidance, we pass with delight through the splendid, artificial, but most fascinating domain of the Lyric Drama. We have no hesitation in pronouncing him the very man to become popular, as a diligent collector, an unprejudiced judge, and a chronicler totally free from professional taint. He brings general scholarship and cultivation to his task, and has produced a very instructive as well as entertaining work."-Athenæum.

MUSICAL GEM; A COLLECTION OF NEARLY THREE HUNDRED MODERN AND FAVORITE SONGS, DUETS, GLEES, &c. by the most celebrated Composers of the Present Day, adapted for the Voice, Flute, or Violin (edited by JOHN PARRY) 3 vols. in 1, 8vo. with a beautifully engraved title, and a VERY RICHLY ILLUMINATED FRONTISPIECE, (pub. at£1. 1s) red turkey cloth, full gilt back and sides, reduced to 10s 6d 1845

The above capital collection contains a great number of the best copyright pieces, including some of the most popular Songs of Braham, Bishop, &c. It forms a most attractive volume.

THE MUSICAL LIBRARY, a Selection of the best Vocal and Instrumental Music, both Eng. lish and Foreign, edited by W. Ayrton, Esq. of the Opera House, 8 vols. folio, comprehending more than Four Hundred Pieces of Music, beautifully printed with metallic types, (pub. at £4. 4s) reduced to £1. 11s 6d

[ocr errors]

the same, 8 vols. in 4, neatly half bound morocco, emblematically gilt on the sides, (pub. at £6. 16s 6d) reduced to £2. 16s

The Vocal and Instrumental may be had separately, each in 4 vols. at 16s.

The cheapest and perhaps the best edition of Music ever offered to the public in the same compass. EIGHT FOLIO VOLUMES FOR A GUINEA AND A HALF is little more than the price of waste paper: yet the collection is extremely valuable, and comprehends many of the most admired OLD ENGLISH SOngs, Glees, MADRIGALS, as well as INSTRUMENTAL PIECES; and some of the best ITALIAN AND GERMAN MUSIC, (the latter provided with English words) both vocal and instrumental, ancient and modern. In all there are upwards of 400 pieces, which, taken at only one shilling each, and this is much less than one-fourth of what many of them could be bought for separately, would amount to no less than £20.

A MORE DESIRABLE PRESENT TO THE LOVER OF
MUSIC DOES NOT EXIST.

Among the Composers' Works contained in it are―
