gentlemen, of credit and character in this city, there will
be a concert of vocal and instrumental music, at Mr. Burns's
new room, on Tuesday the 28th instant; to begin at 6 o'clock
in the evening. This concert will consist of nothing but
church musick, in which will be introduced, a new Te Deum,
Jubilate Deo, Cantate Domino, and Deus Misereatur, with an
anthem (in which there is an obligato part for a harp, as
there is also in the Cantate Domino,) with several other
pieces of church musick, intermixed with other instrumental
performances, in order to ease the voices. The whole to
conclude with a martial psalm, viz the 46th, Tate and
Brady's version; accompanied with all the instruments, and a
pair of drums. N.B. There will be more than forty voices,
and instruments in the chorus. Tickets to be had of Mr.
Tuckey, in Pearl-Street, near the Battery, at 4s. each; who
would take it as a great favour of any gentlemen who sing or
play on any instrument, to lend him their kind assistance in
the performance, and give him timely notice, that there may
be a sufficient number of parts wrote out.
