THE CHORAL SOCIETY'S CONCERT.

Haven's grand oratorio of " The Creation" was performed on Tuesday, in the new hall! belonging to the Society. The attendance Was net quite so large as might have been expected. We had anticipated, from the auspicious appearance of the weather, a much larger house. However, the hall was comfort ably filled. We were surprised also to notice thai* the spacious orchestra was nob so ,yi>osing (as to the number of vocalists) a3 r'^ have seen it on former occasions. Per j ips this was owing to counter attractions. Bat, to our mind, nothing looks so bad as laxity in attendance in this respect. It imposes upon the conductor and the rest of the members a burden not very earily borne. The audience was such as could fully appre ciate the many beauties which is comprised in tlie oratorio of "The Creation." "Spe vocal and instrumental parts were all that the most exacting and fastidious could possibly desire. The members of the society possess musical talents of a very high order, which few who heard then last night will be inclined to dis pute. The effective manner in which even the ' most difficult parts were rendered, proved that much care must have been bestowed in the several preparations, leaving the whole performance., in our opinion, without a single blemish. In fact.it was up to anything we bave beard for some time. It was noticeable that" some Of the members of the Society possess not only excellent voices, but that they have had a careful cultivation. ; The whole, in fact, was so accurately rendered, that an accomplished professional would have scarcely executed it with greater finish, or with more general effect. The chorus, " The Heavens are Telling," and the air " On Mighty Pens," were amongst tbe most noticeable as being beautifully-rendered. The blending of the voices into unison, the accuracy of time, and the complete finibh given to every part were such as to fully inert the marks of ap probation bestowed upon them. Much praise is due to Mr. Joseph Browne, to whose untir ing seal the Society owes so much. Those -n^bo missed last night's performance lost a treat which may not happen for some time to come.—Herald.

AUCKLAND SUNDAY SCHOOL UNION ENTERTAINMENT.

The last of the series of winter evening entertainments, given by the Auckland Sunday School Union, was held yesterday evening, in the Wellesley-street school room. The present entertainment was styled " The Service of Song," and consisted of a variety of pieces of sacred music, rendered by about forty children from the associated schools. During the intervals, readings were given by Messrs. Ewinglon, E. W. Walker, and H. P. Cornford. The music was under the di rection of Mr. Glanville, who has devoted considerable time and attention to the instruc tion of the cbildrßu. His efforts were well rewarded, by the performance of the choir of juveniles'. These entertainments, which have not only been pleasing, but of a popular and instructive character, have been well attended throughout, and great credit is due to the committee for their efforts in bo laudable a work.—Herald.
