Who's behind the notes? Discover Henry Purcell: England's Baroque Master
This lively baroque song originates from Henry Purcell's semi-opera "The Mock Marriage", with lyrics by Thomas d'Urfey. Characterized by playful counterpoint and rhythmic vitality, it exemplifies Purcell's genius in blending English folk elements with sophisticated art song. The work humorously explores gender dynamics through its titular theme.
