A new Comic Opera [1st time; COM 2, librettist unknown]; the Music composed by Storace. "Signor Storace does not appear to have studied that art [of music] much in Italy; for he has entirely deviated from the usual plan of Italian authors...The overture anneunces entirely a French author, and the finales are in the German style of Gluck, loaded with harsh, terrifying music of trumpeting and drumming" (Public Advertiser, 6 Mar.).
