    Purcell on Sunday Morning: 14 August

    ... Before their appearance at the Proms this week, James Jolly focuses on the Sixteen, and presents their recording of Purcell's Ode "Love's Goddess Sure Was Blind". A work written for Queen Mary's birthday…

    It was quite a substantial work but where is it in the playlist?
    James Jolly presents music, including the Sixteen singing Purcell.


    As for the Sixteen’s performance, after yesterday’s wonderfully lively Prom performance from Sam Wanamaker Playhouse, it sounded to me rather too polished. I prefer it to have something of a sense of occasion/event than being a perfect performance.
