L’Esprit Baroque

A Sunday Programme in the ‘baroque spirit’. Centered around the recently released ‘English Royal Funeral Music’ CD, with royal funeral music by Purcell, Morley and Tomkins, by Vox Luminis led by Lionel Meunier.

Only now is it known that Purcell’s 3 Funeral Sentences were not composed for Queen Mary’s funeral in 1695, because Morley’s arrangements were sung.
The only contribution Purcell had were the 2 works for trombone, as well as the "Thou knowest, Lord" anthem that Purcell wrote in Morley’s old composing style.
The music on this CD is accompanied by English consort songs by Michael Chance with Fretwork and Cristopher Field with The Royal Wind Music, and Purcell’s Fantazias by Vittorio Ghielmi.
