YONGE, Nicholas. Line 10 from end of article, for Bodenham read ‘A. B.’, since Mr. A. H. Bullen, in his recent re-issue of ‘England's Helicon’ (1887), proves conclusively that the ‘A. B.’ by whom the original work was edited cannot be Bodenham, as was formerly supposed.

ZUR MÜHLEN, Raimund von, was born Nov. 10, 1854, on the property of his father in Livonia. He received his education in Germany, and in his twenty-first year began to learn singing at the Hochschule, Berlin, and continued the study under Stockhausen at Frankfort, and Bussine in Paris. His specialty is the German Lied, particularly the songs of Schubert and Schumann, of the latter of which he has made a special study with Madame Schumann. His voice is peculiar and sympathetic; but what gives Zur Mühlen's singing its chief charm is the remarkable clearness of his pronunciation, and the way in which he contrives to identify the feeling of the words with the music, to an extent which the writer has never heard equalled.
