MORI’S CONCERT.— The bill of this highly talented violinist’s Concert is, as usual, resplendent with the names of all the first talent in London. He has, if possible, this year put forth greater claims than ever for the patronage of the musical public, having secured the services of the eminent PASTA, conjointly with those of MALIBRAN, CINTI, SCHROEDER, DEMERIC, TAMBURINI, DONZELLI, ZUCHELLI, BOCHSA, MOSCHELES, and MENDELSSOHN, which, with his own unapproachable performance, offers a combination of musical talent seldom or, perhaps, never before collected together. We trust that MORI will find that such liberality in catering for the public amusement will meet with what it so well merits—a crowded room.

MORI’S CONCERT.
This Concert, which took place yesterday evening, at the King’s Theatre, attracted, as usual, the most crowded audience of the season. The room being quite full, a considerable number were accommodated with seats in the orchestra. The numerous attendance which always distinguishes Mr. MORI’S Concert is the fair result not only of the great musical treat which he always provides, but of his own eminent talents. To each of the leading violinists of the day some distinctive attribute may be awarded; and MORI, as a concerto player, ranks inferior to none. His [sic] is always a sound legitimate style; there is no trickery or affectation in his performance, but there is a John-Bullish honesty and real merit about it which must forcibly strike every hearer. His concerto of last night, was a sufficient evidence of this, while, on the other hand, those who looked for first-rate skill in execution found it in his admirable performance of some grand variations by MAYSEDER. He was vehemently applauded, not only by the audience but by his professional brethren in the orchestra, by whom, of course, he is duly appreciated, no less as a leader than as a solo player. The lateness of the hour, as well as want of space, prevents us from dwelling in detail on the other portions of this excellent Concert. MOSCHELES and MENDELSSOHN played in masterly style a duet on two pianofortes, a theme from WEBER’S Preciosa; and BOCHSA gave a fantasia on the harp, in which he introduced the harmonics with excellent effect. Mesdames PASTA and CINTI DAMOREAU, Signors RUBINI, TAMBURINI, ZUCHELLI, and DONZELLI, lent their powerful assistance. Among the vocal pieces we should not omit to mention a polacca from Lord BURGHERSH’S Opera or Il Scompiglio. It is a very elegant and pleasing composition, and was cleverly sung by Mrs. BISHOP. On the whole we were never more gratified; it was a splendid treat, and great credit is certainly due to Mr. MORI for the pains he must have taken to have enlisted so much talent. An apology was made for SCHROEDER DEVRIENT on account of illness.

THE CONCERTS OF THE SEASON.
….
Of the second class, are those residents in the metropolis, who enjoy a first-rate reputation as singers or players, and who by their connexion [sic] in teaching, and their courtesy in performing gratuitously at private parties, can safely calculate on a large sale of tickets. By this class considerable sums of money are often expended, in engaging particular performers or singers, whose names blaze forth in advertisements, and a little puffing is sometimes resorted to in the public papers; but these concerts are
highly interesting to many persons, who only of talent engaged. Among those who have given the best concerts this season, are De Begnis, Vaughan, Mrs. Anderson, Mad. Dulcken, Mori, Schultz, Begrez, Sale, &c. It must, however be admitted, that concerts given by this class of artists are sometimes eked out to a most wearisome length, by a display of second-rate talent; and before the performance is over, one half the friendly assistants in the orchestra have frequently walked off, leaving but the skeleton of a band.

M. MORI’S,
Opera Concert Room, Friday Evening, May 17.
The whole force of the London orchestra, and the corps de l’opera, were, as usual, assembled by M. Mori, and his room was filled in every part. He played with great force and execution a concertino, made up of Mayseder and Maurer, and some ‘grand variations’ by the former composer; besides the violin part of an ottetto by Spohr, in which Handel’s celebrated air in E is introduced, a work which certainly will not add to the fame of M. Spohr. In addition to the above were, Mrs. Knyvett, Mrs. Bishop, Mad. Devrient, and Miss C. Novello. MM. Moscheles and Mendelssohn repeated the duet which they had played at the concert of the former, and M. Bochsa played some variations on the harp. The concert opened with Beethoven’s symphony in C minor, which was very well executed.
