An English Baroque Journey I: Sacred Music – ‘The Music More Full Than It Was’
Wigmore Hall, W1U 2BP , [Venue Details]Arcangelo; Hilary Cronin soprano; Daisy Livesey soprano; James Hall countertenor; Jeremy Budd tenor; Hugo Brady tenor; Matthew Long tenor; Malachy Frame bass; William Gaunt bass; Jonathan Cohen director, harpsichord
England’s Chapel Royal, in the years before and after Oliver Cromwell’s Republic, nurtured some of the nation’s finest composers. After attending one of its services in 1662, Samuel Pepys noted how ‘the music was more full than it was’, referring to improvements made since the restoration of Charles II. Arcangelo and a dream team of singers undertake An English Baroque Journey, taking in emotionally-charged anthems by Pelham Humfrey, Maurice Greene and Matthew Locke and ending with Handel’s majestic setting of words from the Book of Psalms.
Arcangelo respectfully dedicates this concert to the memory of Greta Hemus.
