The first concert of the Dunedin Musical Associatiou, is announced to take place hi the Athaxueum, on the Queen's Birthday, May 26th. From the character of the programme a musical treat may be expected. Miss Harriett Gordon, the accomplished prirna dona of the Princess Theatre, is announced to sing.some of the ballads in which she so much excels, and the members of the Association will give some glees and part songs. The instrumental portion of tho programme is also an attractive* feature at the concert. We have no doubt this first effort in public of the new Association will be cordially appreciated by our citizens and supported accordingly. The concert is to commence at J half past two o'clock in the afternoon.
