Gramophone: outstanding; Fono Forum: outstanding; Klassik Heute: outstanding. This album highlights the works of Henry Purcell, one of the most celebrated English composers of the Baroque era. It features a selection of songs and instrumental pieces that showcase Purcell's versatility in combining emotional depth with lyrical beauty. The repertoire includes theater music, sacred songs, and secular compositions, offering a glimpse into the rich musical culture of late 17th-century England. Performances by soprano Carolyn Sampson, accompanied by historically informed instruments such as the theorbo, bass viol, and harpsichord, bring Purcell's expressive melodies and intricate harmonies to life. This recording invites listeners into the intimate and evocative world of Purcell's musical imagination.
