Once we have 12 notes only (as far as I know, maybe using more names, lol), how could I hope that EVERY piece or song would be really UNIQUE in all parts and COMPLETELY different of million others?
It´s however useless comparing Purcell´s any with Bach´s or Mozart´s others, moreover just a theme for example! I don´t know anything, but I presume, a room light would never be like or even near a sky star.
Purcell did write a lot with theorbo continuo in mind, but many "authentic" early music groups don't seem to use a lute / theorbo continuo player for many composers who used it regularly. eg; Monteverdi / Grandi etc etc
I can't understand why, & still get very little to no work on theorbo !!
even my local early music group doesn't use a theorbo. i think the conductor or leader must really want a particular instrument. otherwise something else is substituted. i'm of the opinion now that all early music sounds better to my ear with theorbo or lute emphasis
i am just now discovering this artist! i was a string player so we didn't do a whole lot of his stuff...let me just say- GORGEOUS; i love these interweaving, lacing winds. :)
Thanks "cuddles..". You should look out for "Oh, Let me Weep" by Purcell. You'd love the violin part in that piece. Also, "From Silent Night", or any other viol consort pieces, by John Dowland (especially "Lachrimae or Seven Teares").
@mdharp please post more.You play healing music,the world needs to hear it.

I love the patient tempo. So many rush... so many rush.. but not you guys. You give glory to the music and the sentiment that it inevitably cast.

Re sheet music, I cant remember. It was a few years ago now. I think there is a Purcell Society in London. They may be able to help.

Congratulations, especially coming from that far south!
However, tone-inflections should never result in getting, even slightly, out of tune on the recorder.
