SIR,- -While agreeing with Mr. Sisson's criticisms of the recent Covent

Garden revival, surely the bobing of the Royal Hunt and Storm by his clique was very unkind and ill-mannered in view of the fine perform- ance which Mr. Pritchard and Covent Garden Orchestra had just given.

Would not he have expressed his criticisms of the production more constructively by letters to the Management, Opera, and the Spectator?—Yours faithfully,
