Review
Chester Chronicle (January 4, 1828): 3.
CONCERT.—On Monday evening, the second subscription Concert was given at the Royal Hotel, when Miss E. Paton was introduced to our notice. This young Lady possesses a voice of great power, and some of her tones are remarkable for richness and depth, while others sound harsh and unpleasant. Her execution is consequently unequal, but study and practice, we doubt not, will produce correctness and brilliancy. Mrs. Atkinson (late Miss Goodall) elicited unqualified applause by her chaste, finished style of singing, the charm of which was greatly increased by her unassuming manner. This lady’s voice is remarkable for sweetness and her execution is peculiarly delicate. “The Maid of Llangollen” was given most touchingly by Mr. Phillips, as was one of Moore’s Irish Melodies, but his chef d’œuvre of the evening was the song of “Sento [*] in seno.” Mr. Moscheles on the grand piano-forte, and Mr. Mori on the violin, left us nothing to desire. The former, in his “Recollections of Ireland,” produced such a flow of harmony as at once to astonish and delight; and the latter, in a concerto “discourse most excellent music.” The Concert altogether went off with great applause from a full and elegant company, and the lovers of harmony experience a rich treat.
