Academy Baroque Soloists

Love conquers all in a programme juxtaposing Purcell’s court and theatre music.
From the knotty harmonies of an eloquent ode (‘Raise, raise the voice’) celebrating the Patron Saint of Music and ‘Urge me no more’ – which posits that ‘melodious lutes’ only belong to cheerful
times – to extracts from the dramatic opera King Arthur, this concert explores themes of magic, myth, authority, nature and transformation.
