V The Town Hall provtd all too small for the vast concourse of people y?bO wished to listen to Madame Marian .Burton in 'The Messiah' on Saturday evening. Those who were, fortunate enough to gain admission expected great tbingj, and those expectations, so far as* Malumo Burton was concerned, were fully realised. Such a rendering of the contralto music has never bean heard before iv Australia. Her baauttful voice and line artistic qualities were displayed to the utmost advantage in *He shall feed His flock' aud *Ha was despised,' the latter given with great Intensity of feeling. The only fault in connection with the performance of the distinguished -artiste was the unthinking impetuous apSlause which followed."—"Melbourne Arguß," anuary 6th, 1890.
