Purcell. Fantazias & In Nomines. Sit Fast
Label: Eloquentia Catalog: EL 1549 Format: CD Sit FastThe work of a young twenty-one year old on the edge of his too brief but meteoric career, Purcell's Fantasias for viols reveal the composer's most intimate expression. A masterpiece of polyphonic thinking to which only the Musical Offering and the Art of Fugue by Bach are worthy comparison. Sit Fast is incomparable in this music, breathing life into the muted colors and arranging them with admirable subtlety. These are performances of an exhilarating intensity. Price: $25.98 |
