LETTER TO THE EDITOR.

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

MR. EDITOR.--The fashion of giving and attending concerts is decidedly on the increase in the good city of Boston; and though the taste seems to be rather undiscriminating, and pleased with the bad as well as the good, yet I cannot but rejoice that it exists at all. The period at which the refinements of music can be appreciated and enjoyed must of course be preceded by one in which less delicate productions will be satisfactory; and the fact that the public are now pleased with the simple and imperfect, is a sure indication of the existence of a power, which, by proper cultivation, will at no distant day be able to judge with accuracy of the merits of music and its performers, and to enjoy most that which exhibits the art in its greatest perfection.
