Brilliant choice of painting. She was a great painter

[@naduroberts5234]

I was just wondering what painting that is?

[@johncowdery9696]

The first time I've heard this in full since my school orchestra days - 60+ years ago. Great music and very nostalgic. Thanks to all.

[@НастяСкулкова]

Henry is a wonderful melodist!

могла б и по русски ведь написать швидка Настя ,такие вы у нас квасные патриоты путиноманы или обыкновенные путиноиды ,родной речью и своей славянской азбукой - кириллицей пренебрегая ,но действуя по типу - куда кнь с копытом -туда рак с клешнями ,англичанам и прочим янки ,гусанос англосаксам угождая лакейски по английски пиша ответку,пусть они лучше наши славянские языки учат и нашу славную славянскую азбуку уважают , где в ней на один звук - одна буква , а не как у них в английском,французском или немецком - на один звук несколько мертвых букв вписывают !

[@levicopp3224]

I do appreciate the emendation " Luck at Last " !!

[@Teona.aka.Maria.Tureschi]

[@paolonostini3693]

HENRY PURCELL , COMPOSITORE INTERESSANTE PER QUANTO RIGUARDA LO STRUMENTALE, PECCATO CHE SIA VISSUTO ASSAI POCO, INTERESSANTE le OUVERTURE, SOPRATUTTO I SUOI FUGATI, ANCHE LE SONATE A TRE, PRESENTANO FUGATI O CONTRAPPUNTI IN ALCUNI PUNTI.

[@MrRafaelamadeumilani]

He is sure about what is good and does not need opinions.

[@paolonostini3693]

Non avevo mai sentito purcell, mi e' balzato agli occhi quando in passato vendevano dischi in vinile in edicola oltre a purcell, ho potuto conoscere Alessandro stradella con la memorabile sinfonia avanti il barcheggio. Purcell spesso e volentieri usa quello che definisco la tecnica fondamentale della musica la fuga primaria e il fugato, non c'è niente di più spettacolare che suonare un tema dove come ingrediente ci sia la fuga o anche il fugato , purcell, ma non e' il solo, persino corelli, Geminiani, fux e altri si sono più o meno cimentati, purcell però ha anche scritto altri brani come le grandiose sonate a tre e le fantasie per viole.

[@MrGar11]

PURCELL genius

[@gerardoconnell6539]

Mher Ishkan absolutely!

[@НастяСкулкова]

O,yes! It's so very elegant!

[@WimGrundy]

The visuals add a lot. Thanks for posting!

[@pierretteetcharlessantucci5642]

Purcell le plus grand compositeur anglais et parmi les plus grands de musique baroque dommage pour l humanite qu il soit mort si jeune comme un autre genie mozart

[@maxwellgarrison6790]

Je dirais qu’il était l’égal anglais à M. Lully.

[@mereyeslacalle]

Lo mejor de los ingleses ; Purcell un genio !!

[@YakobisTV]

beautiful,

[@DanteValjean]

THANKS RP!!!!

[@lincoln169]

I wish minuet II was longer.

[@Gilmaris]

The menuet II begins at 11:30, surely? The one at 12:20 is not a menuet.

[@aquarius044]

No, indeed, it is a piece entitled «La Furstemberg»

[@adamnoman4658]

​@@aquarius044 : Indeed not, but not quite "La Furstenberg" either, but rather a danced set piece retitled "Les Contrafaiseurs" (or perhaps "The Counterfeiters"), for which there is a notated choreography from 1702 in the groundbreaking system ascribed to the Frenchmen Pierre Beauchamp and Raoul-Auger Feuillet (see the Wiki entry). The signature step in the choreography is that of the rigaudon (anglicized to "rigadoon"), and a number of more or less acceptable reconstructions of the dance score can be found on YT. - -

[@adamnoman4658]

PS. As for the popular and long-lived "La Furstenberg" itself, a very fine set variations by an obscure Frenchman of the mid-18th played with a fine sensitivity has recently been uploaded by members of the Ensemble Diderot here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aorFiYx5ZZd0f7c - -

LO VE LY.

[@rogerstill71]

@Riuk881 My thoughts exactly! I wonder why she disables the ratings (?)

El canaletto dea musica inglese

[@PooyaRadbon]

I am a baroque violinist and I tell you here they played a bit out of tune back then! don't think it is one of the historical temperaments!
