Benjamin Perrot (theorbe & direction) La Rêveuse The civil war that culminated in the decapitation of King CharlesI was a
dark period of English history; yet, in musical terms, the Puritans led by Oliver Cromwell did not do as
much damage as one might have imagined. By prohibiting public music-making in places of workship and
theatres, they contributed to the development of the practice of chamber music between friends in the
home. |

Daniel Taylor (countertenor), Nancy Argenta (soprano) Theatre of Early Music,
Christopher Jackson Two of the most accomplished vocal artists Canada has produced share their love of English song from Purcell's time: solo pieces and duets written for the theatre and for celebratory odes by the Orpheus Britannicus himself, as well as some tasty morsels by his greatest "disciple," John Eccles. John Blow and Henry's younger brother, Daniel, also add more than their two-pence worth. A very worthy band of instrumentalists complete the programme with a choice selection of "ayres" (in truth, instrumental suites) from two theatrical works to which Henry Purcell contributed. | | | Usually despatched in 3 - 4 working days. |
