H Purcell, my fav Baroque composer. His music lifts me up

[@glynnwright1699]

Parts of what he wrote have skipped the centuries and sound quite contemporary. As I have grown older, I have come to be in awe of the Baroque composers, much of their work is both sublime and sophisticated.

[@youngwoo5860]

Henry Purcell is J.S Bach of England. His piece is elegant and elaborate. I am happy with Purcell. It is brilliant rendition. Thank you for sharing such a gorgeous masterpiece.. I fell in love in King Arthur. It will be my best favorite from now on.

Predivna muzika.

[@rexscottorum5686]

Purcell.....first time I've heard him. I'm converted.

[@aucuneideejsp8891]

Try Handel also

[@Charlie-fx9dp]

He was as an English Mozart, but now less known by the large public.. From France.

[@dorisbinder3137]

@@Charlie-fx9dp really? was he a young genius, or do you just mean his talent?

[@dorisbinder3137]

what he has written is of course more important, just asking

[@moksha8473]

@@dorisbinder3137 Purcell was undoubtedly gifted. He single-handedly synthesised the French and Italian styles of Baroque music into a distinct English style. No other composer really sounds like him. Even Handel tried to imitate him in a few of his oratorios when he moved to England.
