I've made it mandatory for this music to be played whenever I enter the room.

Purcell is TRAGICALLY underrated. 🥰🥰

[@Captain-Cosmo]

For several years in the early 90s, I lived with a lute and theorbo (as played here) musician. He would buy a bag of pot and practice (perform) for many hours on end. He asked me if it bothered him, but he never understood how pleasant it was. Each of us performed many times in the beautiful Spivey Hall in Atlanta, Ga, but my favorite memories are of getting stoned with him and just relaxing as Purcell, Dowland and Byrd gently drifted through our home.

The "Duke of Gloucester's Birthday Ode" was the last ode that Purcell wrote for the Royal Family. He regularly wrote a birthday ode for Queen Mary every year until she died, after which he wrote the famous funeral music for her. The Duke of Gloucester was the only son of the future Queen Anne to survive infancy. He was therefore in line to become king. The ode was written for his sixth birthday. He allegedly asked for "lots of trumpets" and Purcell obliged. Unfortunately, he died in 1700 at age 11, which necessitated the parliament to pass the Act of Succession which made the Hanoverians heirs to the throne, bypassing the Catholic descendants of James II.

These keyless instruments give us the true sound of the Baroque era.

Amazing Henry Purcell. Handel inspirator. 😊❤

[@andrewexists4517]

This is my first time hearing a full section of baroque Trumpets, and I totally get why composers back in the day were hesitant to move from F and lower up to Bb. Those undertones really gave it a nice sound. I think I'm still happy with Bb Trumpets, but this is a neat sound to go back to.

That is soooo Royal.
RIP to the theorbo....

[@pannonia77]

[@StocksIn60Seconds]

That final chord was INCREDIBLE. 😳

[@ShawnComposer]

what was so incredible about that single chord? the entire piece was incredible!

[@jamaicanpianistcomposer]

@@ShawnComposer INCREDIBLE INDEED!!! But there is something about that last chord when the dust of the previous sound settles and the chord rises in purity and high resonance into the acoustic space that's just chilling!!! Nothing like it!!!

[@francomasiero2019]

Meravigliosa

[@JavierSanchez-tm7xo]

[@billace90]

Oh, and which building is it in? Very impressive, too.

[@andresrazio1984]

Reminds me of haendel

[@trebcabb]

Handel studied Purcell's music after he migrated to England in 1710. By that time, Purcell had been dead for 15 years, but his music was still popular. So it's no accident that in Handel's English works you will hear echoes of Purcell.

[@kurtschlesinger8257]

wow sounds a bit like Charpentiers music wow

[@dariyandubik678]

I got some handels messiahs trumpets shall sound vibes nice
