Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - If you love Purcell, get this set
Purcell is simply my favorite composer - he has inventiveness, depth and poignancy. What luck to finally happen upon this set. These are among the rare CDs in my collection that don't disturb my concentration when working, but that also stand up to intensive listening. Parts of some performances bring tears, others make me listen for how the ornaments are executed - and all are done impeccably. My favorite Purcell is probably the short but seminal individual movements of his keyboard suites, on disc 6, in part because those are the ones I can attempt to play myself on the piano. And by the way, the stress is on the first syllable: 'Purcell, not Pur'cell - it took a while to retrain myself on this. Highly recommended: six stars.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - excellent value
I have an enormous amount of affection for this anthlogy. The music is quintessential Purcell- ingeneous, straight-forward, the show tune king of his day. This is a seven disc set. The first four discs are performed by Musica Antiphon, one of several European H.I.P. ensembles who seem to draw personnel from the same pool. This particular group empressed me earlier with a performance of the Telemann Tafelmusik which was far more spirited and fun than the benchmark perfomance by Musica Antiqua Koln. That same sense of fun is present here as well. The final three discs are harpsichord (and a little organ) pieces played by Pieter-Jan Belder. His performances are pleasant and musical as well. It is nice to hear music in these discs (instead of a prissy HIP seminar). My only qualm about this set ... Read More


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - excellent recordings
These are very well recorded and thoughtful performances. I cannot believe how inexpensive they are. The musicians play in many world famous orchestras. This is music easy to live with.
