Over het album

The Armonico Consert and soloists perform Henry Purcell’s evergreen chamber opera Dido & Aeneas, the work based on Virgil’s epic, the Aeneid. Armonico Consert is one of the largest and most innovative organizations of its kind in the UK, existing to inspire audiences with its unique programs.

About Armonico Consert: “... the whole thing seems suffused with light reflected from Manahan Thomas’ voice, and Steele-Perkins’ effortlessly projected trumpet.” (BBC Radio 3 CD review of Let The Bright Seraphim, SIGCD289) “... a disc of unending delight.” (Gramophone review of Naked Byrd Two, SIGCD235).

Track 42 is the beloved When I am laid in earth.
