Nuslc-The style Of Mr.. Russell is very similar 10
the present Italian mode Of executing proans and sa-
cred melodies. In private circles among the better
classes the performer accompanies the voice on the
piano with the exact notes Of the air sung and is
executed either in octaves in thirds and ffths both
in base and treble, that all the music the instrument
affords is produced The effect is truly grand and
most decidedly superior TO the common mode of play
ing regular bass and treble TO the air. IL has the
advantage too OF keeping the singer the true notes.
so that his execution will always be perfect the
instrument tits great assistance too, IN learning
to sing. Mr.. Russelrs IS new style of singing, but
think he does not adopt the Italian method in play
| ing the accompaniment, although his method is very
excellent With respect to any thing more on the
subject must say, Non MI RicoRpo.
