The Maid’s Prayer
Baroque Passions cycle.
Borrowing its title from a comedy first performed in 1693 at the Theatre Royal, this program plunges you into the theatrical world of Britain’s greatest Baroque composer.
With or without lyrics, Purcell alone can make us experience so many different emotions in the span of a single aria, rendering with such depth the complexity of human feeling.
Whether portraying a woman in love, Mary, the mother of Jesus, or a siren from mythology, Master Purcell paints vivid portraits of female characters that speak to us of the essential.
Throughout this concert, you will hear arias and duets from Pausanias, The Fairy Queen, King Arthur, The Maid’s Last Prayer, as well as a poignant scene from Harmonia Sacra titled The Blessed Virgin’s Expostulation. Additionally, harpsichord pieces and a suite in G minor will enrich the program.
Finally, excerpts from Dioclesian, a tragicomic semi-opera, will complete this immersion into the heart of Baroque passions.
A musical journey into the human soul, sublimated by Purcell.
