Steinway Hall—Prince Galitzie’s Concert, Two hundred people sat in the auditorium of Steinway Hall iast night to listen to the first concert Of Prince Galitzin, a scion of Russia, interpreted by @ chorus of foriy-six and an orchestra of forty. ‘The programme comprised selections from the prin- cipal Russian composers, and it’ abounded in de scriptions or sketches of the composers and the music. ‘The only soloist was Levy, the celebrated cornet player, who really made the grand success of the evening by his inimitable playing. We think that there is no cornet player in Europe or America that can compare with Levy; and his manager, Fisk, Jr., may feel proud of securing permanently such @ magnificent artist, The following remarks about Russian music must prove interest ing:—Daring the past few years music in Kussia has made immense progress. Two conservato- Ties—one at St. Petersburg, the other at Moscow—hbave been established by the brothers Rubinstein, and these wwo institutions enjoy the special patronage of the Grand Duchess Helen, widow of the Grand Duke Michael, the uncle of the Emperor. There even exists in the two capitals of the empire a circle (somewhat limited, it ts true), formed by disciples of the new German school (Zukunftsmusik) of the music of the future. Not only are Wagner's operas performed at the ‘Russian Opera House,” but the works of Schu- mano, Berlioz and Liszt appear upon the pro- grammes of concerts given by the several Pnilhar- monic societies in St, Petersburg and Moscow. As regards Russian music. itself, there can be no doubt but that among the nanies of ita composers—Glinka, Dango- mysky, Verstofsky, Séroff, Rubinstein, Titingof, Kachperoff, Korsikoif, Cul, Moussersky, Bowdme, Balakéreff, Tchaixowsky, Ladijinky, Tchirkom, Bort- niousky, Lwot!, Lanakine, Varlam Titom, Ala- bie and many others, Tho namo of Gitnka 1s the central sun of the Russian artistic firmament, Rus- muaio presents itself under different forms, popular song, whose origin {s generally un- Koown; the romance, known only during half @ century: the ballad, the apostle of which fs Dargomijsky, and also iis pupils, Mous- sersky R. Korssikoff, Balakéretf—aud es- mec. Cul, who ranks as oneof the most isting wished composers of the age—and Lhe opera, which aeems to have entered upon a very brilliant phase. Since Glinka’s period Russian composers ave given their country some twenty-live or thirty operas, for the greater part based on national his- torical subjects. Nextin order comes the church Music, a capelia. But we shall deter reference to this special class of composition until Prince Ga- litain shall commence his series of sacred concerts, Remarkiny that Glinka is the Mozart, and, judging from a certain portion of bis compositions, the Beothoven of Russia, we shall say a few words con- rene vhis genius of the North. Possessing a very ie at Me ad constitution, Glinka compieted his education me, nor could he be prevailed upon to take active part in the service of the crown, Inasmuch as his artistic impulses directed his steps im other directions. He travelled extensively, chiefly in Ivwly, devoting his youthful mind to the close siudy of the great masters, especially Mozart, and thus forti. fied and true to his nationality he undertook his masterwork, ‘‘A Life for the Czar.” ‘This it effort is certainly the most perfect work of its kind. It may be briefly analyzed. ‘The five acts of which it consists contain upwarus of filty melodies of the most entrancing character. Moreover, while each Sars. in form, rhythm and color, is unmistaka- an, no single melody has been filched from the treasury of national song. ‘ihe recitatives are all singularly melodious and clad in rhythmical forms. They bear not tne slightest resemblance to the epstomary recitative passages of other operas, They are not at all cosmopolitan in nature, and it would be impossible to transplant them into any Other score or replace them in the original with- out altering the entire meaning of the musical drama itvell, Tue orchestration is truly subiime, and from the first note of the score to the last there is nothing to be — desired. Every vocal or instrumental phrase has its just place and sn obyious reason for its being. It would be @ sacrilege to add to or subtract in the smailest degree trom this product of genius. A striciag and novel effect is, for example, roduced in Wanta’s song (contralto), a rhythm of hree-iour time being counterbalanced’ by one in common timé The subject of the opera ls sug, gested by the Polish invasion of Russia, and the Composer defines the movements of the Polandera by using the taree-four rhythm (Polonatse), while iliustratng the dogs of the opposing Rus- sians by means of the temp two-four, four- four, BixX-eight, &c., this ingenious process sery- i Keep in mind the Cs hone extsting be- wv the two forces engaged in the scenes. inka has also written another opera. founded on ® poem by Puscnkin (a celebrated Russtan poet), called “Russian and Ludmilia,” ‘Tos composition, conmasteg merely as. ara ony or cxamined 1 al, namber vy numbel, surpasses even the theres Rute Sor ine Ozar,”” but viewed a3 a whole it 1s far from meeting the requirements of a perfect opera. Prince Galitzin {3 the first of his countrymen who has sought to elevate the national song—that 13 to say, he was the first who perceived the desirability of iutreg: 6 popular Kussian | melodies into the conce: ‘ue, every national mek arran, by Princé Galitzin’ for chorus an Crenestra, and invested wiih rich hargoulow settings, becomes an aertisyc _ composi- tion, although the original ‘theiie Fetains 103 pristine vigor and simplicity. {t is perhaps s:gntf- cant that the Prince rescued this spegies of popular song from its vulgar associations at the very time when the attempt was made to in- troduce it here by @ certain Slaviousky, who suc- ceeded only in preseating it im the uncouth form that characterized Its rendering by the street bands or in the concert saloons of the Russtan cities. In his youth Glinka composed more than a hundred romanc all conspicuously melodious. His KS are, ong others, the a (Scherzo), “Une Natt aE- t¢,” “La Jota Aragonaise,> “Valse de Fantaisie,” the music for @ drama; “Le Prince Cholmsky,” a tarentelle, with chorus, &c, We understand that Prince Galitzin has brought With him the complete score of the opera “A Life for the Ozar,”” comprising all the orchestral parts, together with the designs for the several scenes, descriptions of the costume required, and also an English translation of the /ibretto, and it is quite possivie that one of these days we snal] enjoy a pertormagey of this beautliut Shere at some ope of our leading theatres. This may be thé hioré easily accomplished, seeing that the mise en scéne is not costly, and that only four principal singers are demanded—a soprano, con- tralto, tenor and bass, The incidental ballet music 19 indescribably beautiful, and the scenes disclose are exceedingly interesting, especially the last, representing Moscow and its historical Kremlin, The performance last night was an Peemptioation of a rule which all managers dnd mtigicians must understand sooner or tater.

Those terribis ple, the basses aud wind instrumentalists, who play thé most important parts In Kussiad music, actually murdered their parts outright, Russian music 1s worthy of better representatives than those people Who undertook to sing and play last night. We trust that the Prince will do better at his next con- cert than he did last evening. Olympic Theatre. “Humpty Dumpty” contmues to run at this theatre with fair success, drawing full and enthu- silastic houses every night.

It will be seen on a perusal of tho facts that the escape of at least a dozen persons from instant death was almost miraculous; but the Collision was sufficiently disastrous to create an excitement in the city which will not soon be for- gotten, Many hives have been sacrificed at the crossings, and numerous have beon the escapes of horse cars at these places. ‘The Philaaelphia train which left the Jersey Oity depot at ten minutes before seven o’clock arrived ‘at the Newark avenue croasing just ia time to catch the Hudson City car No. 1, which was on the up trip. On account of the ‘severe storm then prevall- ing the car was so crowdeu that the PASSENGERS WERE LITERALLY JAMMED TOGETHER, Tho platforms were filled, leaving the driver just room enough to control his brakes and the conductor to pull his belt. The car stopped on arriving near the crossing, as re- quired by the olty ordinance. If a train showld be coming either way the gate tenders Jower the gates so tnat io person can pass. ‘On this occasion the gate was not lowered, aad the driver accordingly passed on. The horse car track crosses ‘the railroad, not at rignt angles but at an acute angie, so that whilea driver cau readily see for Limself whether a train be coming in, he cannot 80 easily see.a train passing out, especially if his view be obstructed by a crow! of passengers mm addition to the bulidings which line tue railroad at @lther skle, He had just entered on the track, however, when he heard the cry ratsed “A TRAIN | A TRAIN ! DRIVE ON 117 Governed by the first impulse, he pulled up ana stopped on the very middle of the railroad, and then, acting on the second thought, and taking in the desperate situation at a giance, ne struck bis horses, which made a vigvrous plunge forward, ‘The passengers held on, trusting, as had often been Une case beiore, to the horses and to good luck to carry them out of danger. But they were not all in good luck this time. The car had so lar passed on that only the rear platform and an angle of the body of the car, comprising about ten persons, were caught by the locomotive, which siackened not its pace as it tuggei a long train after it.

They were thrown out in every direction and the train dashed on, carrying with it a man, a woman and a boy who were THROWN ON THF COWCATCHER by the force of the collision. When the train was stopped, a few blocks above the scence, these per- sons were found clinging to the cowcaichcr. ‘hey had sustained no serious injuries, but were greatly terror stricken. Then commenced the meiancholy work of searching for THE WOUNDED, ‘These were taken up and conveyed into the drug stores near the place or into the ofilce of Justice Davis or the Jersey City Market, or the houses of other kind people who uobly came to the rescue. ‘The first taken up was an old man named Wilham Samuel Blake, a jeweller, who works in New York, but who resides in Washington place, Bergen. He ‘was carried into a tailoring establishment and laid onatable, The right side of his skull was severely iractured, and he sustained also injaries of the spine, He was only seml-conscious during the evening and had no recollection whatever of the collision. A woman was carried into Justice Davis’ ofice, kind on the American stage. Miss Jennie Yeamans sings her old society song amid triumphant ap- plate, though one can scarcely help pitying her for the effort she is evidently obli; to make to cause her child's voice to reach the galleries. The Cat song is, of course, still a great attraction. The usual fooleries of the pantomime, jn which the Clown and the Pantaloon get into ail sorts of absurd scrapes, are beginning to get stale; but a very little effort would be enough to furoish them up again. As to scenery and transformation eifects, the man- agement deserves the warmest praise. ‘The grand test of popularity, large audiences, stili nightly greet the piece, and it might apparently run much longer With conspicuous success, AMERICAN INSTITUTE OF AROHITEOTS, v Boston, Nov, 14, 1871.
