Our Take

Tiptoeing through the baroque gardens of Henry Purcell's mind, The King's Consort delivers a delightful rendition of Twelve Sonatas of Three Parts. With precision and gusto, they sweep through each movement, painting a vivid musical tapestry that transports listeners to the extravagant court of King Charles II.

From the lively dance-like rhythms in Sonata No. 1 to the hauntingly beautiful melodies of Sonata No. 8, this album is a rollercoaster of emotions and sonic textures. The musicianship displayed here is top-notch, with each member of The King's Consort bringing their A-game and expertly navigating Purcell's intricate compositions.

What sets this album apart is the sheer joy and enthusiasm that The King's Consort brings to the music. It's clear that they have a deep appreciation for Purcell's work, and their love for the music shines through in every note. Whether you're a seasoned Purcell aficionado or a newcomer to the world of baroque music, this album is sure to delight and captivate.

So, grab your powdered wig and silk stockings, and get ready to be transported back in time to the golden age of English music. The King's Consort's rendition of Twelve Sonatas of Three Parts is a true masterpiece that deserves a place in every music lover's collection. Bravo!
