It is inimitable set to music by $Mr Handel=...not strictly an Oratorio, tho' perform'd as such, the subject not being taken from <i>Holy Writ</i>. To which was added the celebrated <i>Te Deum</i>, composed by Mr Handel for the peace of <i>Utrecht</i>...a very grand masterly piece. End of Act I, <i>a Concerto on the French Horn</i> by $Mr Ponta=, musician to his Serene Highness, the $Elector of Mentz=, lately arrived in <i>England</i>. What this gentleman executes with the horn is very surprising, but, not being suited to the genius of the instrument, it is not productive of any good effect, when considered musically; as a matter of novelty it may surprise and please, on which account it is worthy the notice of the curious.
