I heard them all three at a private concert sing some of the pieces from it, as a kind of trial, preparatory to bringing it out for Pasta's benefit. They did not please me, being of a forced, unnatural style ; but on the stage Pasta's very fine acting, almost horrific in the last scene, obtained some success to this opera. Another she performed was La Somnambula, by Bellini, who has composed a great deal of music expressly for Rubini, whom I heard sing very beautifully one of his songs from II ...Pirata at the concert above mentioned. In the last opera both those performers sung and acted to perfection. The year 1832 (at which I am now arrived) was less successful, though it had more variety than any other in this period. A new ma- nager had undertaken the opera, and he managed ill both for himself and the public. MERIC. 209 It opened with a moderate company, the first singer of which was Madame de Meric, not a great, but far from an unpleasing performer. She was a clever actress, was possessed of a pretty good voice, and considerable versatility of talent, rendering her very useful, as she sung in serious or comic operas, first parts or second, and in any language.
