AMUSEMENTS.

DE MURSKA CONCERTS. The fourth concert given by this talented artiste took place last night at the Music Hall, and contained some of the best musical selections yet introduced by Mdlle de Murska. In the first part Giorza’s vocal waltz “ Per Sempre” was most charmingly rendered by Mdlle, being very brilliantly executed. The sparkling trills and cadenzas were given with great effect and clearness. The orchestral accompaniment, which was excellently played, also added greatly to the success of the waltz. Signori Susini and Rosnati were both in good voice, and sang their solos in the first part exceedingly well. Maestro Ilia’s violin solo was played with great brilliancy of execution and correctness, and was a rare musical treat. In the laughing trio Mdlle de Murska was exceedingly good, her clear ringing notes blending admirably with those of Signori Rosnati and Susini. The grand aria from “II Flauto Magico” was one of the gems of the evening, and was rendered by Mdlle in a truly artistic manner. A scene from “ Eliair de Amore,” substituted for “Don Pasquale,” given by Mdlle de Murska and Susini, was highly successful and most enthusiastically received. In the grand duo “ Vest ale,” and in the romanza and serenade Signori Susini and Rosnati were each heartily greeted, their singing being fully worthy of such recognition, as was also Maestro Ilia’s exquisite piano solo. The last concert will be given this evening for the benefit of Mdlle de Murska, when she will contribute “Robert toi que j’aime.” “ Queen of the Night,” and the aria “ Una Voce.” She will also sing in the duo from “ Crispin©. ” The Maestro will also contribute a violin and piano solo.
