'Two song anthologies (Orpheus Britannicus, Vol 1, 1698, Vol 2, 1702
and Ayres for the Theatre, 1697), published shortly after the death of
36-year-old Henry Purcell in 1695, have inspired this enchanting,
uncommonly varied programme spearheaded by nonpareil baroque soprano
Carolyn Sampson.'
'Here are some of Purcell's best loved songs as well as lesser-known
gems; and for the "album" title the artists have selected a line from
the opening song Sweeter than roses: "What magic has victorious
love".'
- Howard Smith, writing in today's Music & Vision Magazine
