When night her purple veil : (voice and ensemble)
Bok av Henry Purcell
Whilst the authorship of this 15-minute cantata is contested - some believe that it is the work of Daniel Purcell - it remains an attractive and highly expressive work. Scored for baritone, 2 violins and continuo, this realisation follows the Purcell Society edition text, and features an imaginative keyboard part by Britten.
