    Vox Luminis
    Artist in residence van FOMU 2015 Vox Luminis opent met een Purcell programma rond koningin Mary II. Het bekendst is wel de muziek voor haar begrafenis. Mary overleed op 28 december 1694, 32 jaar oud, aan de pokken. Haar man en mederegent, de Nederlandse prins Willem, was ontroostbaar en met hem vele Engelsen. Voor haar theatrale uitvaart op 5 maart 1695 in Westminster Abbey schreef Henry Purcell, slechts enkele maanden voor zijn eigen dood, de indrukwekkende en ontroerende Funeral Music for Queen Mary en de elegie O dive custos.

    Many thanks for this wonderful upload! The juxtaposition of Morley with Purcell is so apt. Thanks too for letting us listen without having the divine sounds interrupted by ads urging to you buy a BMW!

    I'm a Purcell addict....a Certified Purcellholic.... there's no such thing as too much Henry Purcell.
    (Bach & Handel were 10 years old when Purcell died early like a rock star).
    This ensemble is representing Purcell faithfully and accurately. Nicely done.

    A revelation. I have never heard Purcell played and sung like this, out of its traditional context. It reveals just how great and supra national a composer he really is. And never for a moment losing his English idiom. Brilliant.

  • @rupertsnell1035
    @rupertsnell1035 Год назад

    Very very fine. It all makes me think of the prose preface to Gerard Manley Hopkins' famous poem "Henry Purcell". It goes like this: "The poet wishes well to the divine genius of Purcell and praises him that, whereas other musicians have given utterance to the moods of man’s mind, he has, beyond that, uttered in notes the very make and species of man as created both in him and in all men generally." The poem itself can easily be found online. Truly we are blessed by such music (and indeed by such poetry).

    Can't better the musical performance, expression, quality of voices, only problem is poor diction. Very difficult to know what words are being sung. Vowels are smudged. Was it Morley who said that singers should learn to vowel and sing clean!
