Let The Dreadful Engines of Eternal Will

Don Quixote
Bok av Henry Purcell
Benjamin Britten's performances and realisations of the songs and other music by Henry Purcell extended over at least thirty years, from the early nineteen forties onwards. In Purcell he found a kindred spirit: a composer of opera and dramatic music who knew how to write for the voice, and who handled the English language with sensitivity and daring.
