Description
In this classic study, reissued on the 300th anniversary of Purcell's death, Sir Jack Westrup drew on documentary evidence from the Court, Westminster Abbey, and other sources to give a vivid account of Purcell's life in seventeenth-century London. The range of Purcell's compositions is also fully covered, from small-scale pieces to music for state occasions and works for the Restoration stage.
