Wo heartily congratulate Mr. Bristow on giving aueh ® meritorious, broad, intelligent and well scored work aa Columbus, and we must censure the directors of the society for placing it Inst ow the programme. Why tho wcnselees, whitnst- cai pieos of nonsense by Liszt should take precedenee of such a work Mt more than we can account for, Indo~ tof the deseriptive character of (ae music, which unnecessarily elaborated on the back of the rogramme, ite totrinaic merits as a work of art are sufficient to ontitle ft tw ® prominent position among the very beat works of tho modorn schools, The opening andantine ise beautiful, undulating move- ment, and Mr. Bristow tr it shows L.mself w be ap adopt in all the graces of oxpression and arts of colormg.
