Henry Purcell: Songs and Catches with Paul Agnew and Les Arts Florissants at Paris Philharmonic
Νοσταλγική βραδιά baroque
221 Av. Jean Jaurès au 6e étage, 75019 Paris, France
Between heart-wrenching songs and humor-filled catches, Paul Agnew and Les Arts Florissants celebrate the creative freedom of the English composer Henry Purcell. As the absolute master of the English Restoration scene, Purcell excelled in two complementary forms: songs, which act as dramatic monologues with rare expressiveness, and catches, which are three-part vocal canons often featuring satirical or bawdy lyrics. This performance offers a joyful dive into the heart of British genius.
