Short description
Songs by the great English Baroque composer Henry Purcell, realized by Britten, most suitable for student singers have been selected for this collection. Contents: Fairest Isle * Hark the ech'ing air * How blest are shepherds * I attempt from love's sickness to fly * I'll sail upon the Dog-star * If music be the food of love (1st version) * Man is for the woman made * Music for a while * On the brow of Richmond Hill * There's not a swain of the plain * Turn then thine eyes * We sing to him.
