Overture to the Opera of " Luke," produced at Copenhagen.
Composed and arranged for the Pianoforte, by FREDERICK KUH- LAU, Director of the 'Opera to the King of Denmark. Danish music has rarely found its way into this country, and this over- ture is completely modelled on the modern German school. It is a stream running from the fountain of WEBER, and will be admired by all who have formed their taste to the enjoyment of its peculiaritiese We can only guess at its orchestral combinations, but we should expect them to be stimulating in no inconsiderable degree.
