Henry Purcell: "Hark! How the songsters of the grove" (A.Scholl & P.Jaroussky)

Henry Purcell (1659?-1695)
"Hark! How the songsters of the grove"
from 'Timon of Athens' Z.632 (semi-opera)

* * * * * * * * *
Hark! hark! how the Songsters of the Grove;
Sing, Sing Anthems to the God of Love.
Hark! hark! how each Amarous winged pair,
with Love's great Praises fill the Air;
On ev'ry side the Charming sound
does from the hollow Woods rebound.

* * * * * * * * *
