Magnificent Portrait Purges Melancholy

03/17/2000

(5 out of 5 stars)

"I am completely addicted to this album: it has just the right combination of this period's classics (Purcell), spiritual music (J.C. Bach, excerpt from Handel's "Messiah"), tunes from the playhouse (Gay, Croft), and popular airs (please listen to "Gillicrankie" or "Kettle Drum") that I think I must now buy all of the Harmonia Mundi recordings where the stuff originated. If you are at all interested in capturing the flavor of the (fascinating) first part of the 18th century, I highly recommend this sampler to you."
