SUMMARY:Purcell: Purcell’s Lament\, Paragon Singers\, Bath
DESCRIPTION:Purcell’s Lament \nAn immersive staged concert exploring Purcell’s life and music \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIt’s a cold November evening in 1695. Henry Purcell staggers home after an evening in the pub and finds himself locked out of his house. Too sozzled to think straight\, he lies down to sleep in the street and catches his death. \nAt his funeral his friends gather to lament the death of England’s greatest composer. \nSo begins Purcell’s Lament\, an original piece of concert-theatre celebrating the life and music of Henry Purcell. And what music! \nThe Cold Song\nDido’s Lament\nThe Fairy Queen\nHear My Prayer\nOne Charming Night\nFuneral Sentences for Queen Mary\nThey that Go Down to the Sea in Ships \nStep back in time and experience staged versions of his soaring anthems\, haunting arias\, tavern songs\, and beautiful courtly dances. \nCome and celebrate a life lived in music which still has the power to move and delight over 300 years after it was written\, and which continues to inspire composers across the world. Words and music combine in this immersive staged concert exploring Henry Purcell’s life. \nA new script by Stewart Harcourt weaves together Purcell’s most moving songs and choral works in a portrait of loss\, love and the joy of music that endures. \nFeaturing baroque instrumentalists\, soprano and baritone soloists Rhiannon Llewellyn and Kieran Rayner\, and brought to life a stage director Guido Martin Brandis\, associate director Malika Jumbe\, and Paragon’s acclaimed director Sarah Latto.
