Description:

It is no exaggeration to say that Henry Purcell, Britain’s preeminent composer, is a figure whom anyone with a growing interest in the Baroque era will inevitably come to admire deeply. While there are no shortage of complete recordings of his extensive works, anthologies of his masterpieces continued to be compiled even after his untimely death, and his popularity showed no signs of waning even into the 18th century. The true essence of this composer likely lies in the subtle nuances hidden within each and every one of his songs. In that sense, while numerous early music performers have released their own carefully curated collections of masterpieces, this time we have a definitive new recording by Pierce, a leading female early music singer from the UK itself! Moreover, the instrumental ensemble features the brilliant Richard Egger—currently Music Director of the Academy of Ancient Music (Ancient Chamber Orchestra)—and William Carter, founder of the Palladian Ensemble. Based on the perspective that “while a rich Baroque instrumental ensemble is certainly fine, historical records clearly indicate that the harpsichord and theorbo-like instruments are the best choice for accompanying Purcell’s theatrical works,” these two masters use their exquisite sensitivity to fully bring out the beauty of this renowned singer’s performances. In addition to definitive masterpieces such as “Music Is but a Moment” and “O Solitude,” the rich selection of tracks (the Japanese edition includes translated liner notes and lyrics) is not to be missed.
