Programme Note
Set in 1695, the play follows Purcell through dream-like hallucinations as his world transforms into a stage, revisiting everything from the Great Fire of London to his own early romances.
Interwoven with "mad songs," bawdy ballads, and soaring airs, this performance by Niall Ashdown and five world-class musicians is more than a concert; it is a visceral journey through the mind of a genius.
