Title The Amateur Concert
Abstract/Description Half the pleasure of a Concert, is chatting with one's friends, and viewing strange faces, particularly those of the softer sex, whose chaste smiles have ever had a civilizing effect on the rough mind of man. Therefore instead of 14 pieces, we recommend in future the complement to be 8, or at most 10. Two Overtures, two Duetts, (instrumental,) five Songs and Glees, and one Comic Song for the million, would be abundance to occupy from 7 to 10.
