Canada's Les Voix Baroques joins Mercury Baroque's chamber ensemble in celebrating the 350th birthday of composer Henry Purcell. Purcell is an English Baroque composer from the late 1600s who made significant contributions to England's sacred, chamber, and theater music and operas. The opera Dido and Aeneas, and the ode "Hail Bright Cecilia" are a few of his more popular works. The evening will include music by Purcell and some of his English contemporaries such as Croft, Jenkins, and Locke.
