When I am laid in earth,
May my wrongs create,
No trouble in thy breast.
Remember me!
But ah! forget my fate!
The single most plangent piece of music ever written. Thank you.
Too bad you didn’t include the short recitative before the aria “Thy hand Belinda” it really belongs with the aria.
Yes, that’s somewhat a pity
So good with karaoke versions 🖤thank you!
Thank you so much for this.
To Think , J.S. Bach was only a child, and Purcell { an Englishman } was producing quality like this.
This and many other works, eg Hear My Prayer O Lord
Thank you!!
Amazing❤
And to think it was written for school girls.
This is sung by the role Dido who is usually played by a Soprano. The music is also a part of the usual repertoire of the countertenor.
The opera was staged with a Girls' School in 1688 but it might have been written for the royal court and staged beforehand. The staging in 1688 is however the earliest staging we know of. That the aria was written for school girls I find quite far fetched. It's written for a soprano. In this time works where seldomly written for specific people so to state that it was written for school girls I find a bit reductive.
We performed it at our girls' school. I was the Sorceress. Marvellous piece.
State the key please.
It's in G minor
@@MusicalConcepts (Get a pitch pipe: there is the modern G minor and the baroque G minor which is one-half tone lower.)
@@22reviewermiller36 We recorded it in modern g minor
You get a G (minor) for that
