Purcell's
Trio Sonatas of 1683 are
a blend or hybrid of
French and Italian
Baroque 17th Century
musical styles. The six
Sonatas of Volume 2
alternate between major
and minor keys. Each work
consists of several short
movements, ranging
between melancholy and
joyous. Volume 2 is a
continuation of the six
sonatas from volume one,
with more surprises and
enjoyment for performers
and listeners alike.
Especially delightful are
the dissonances that the
composer intersperses
throughout each work.
Each Sonata is about 6-7
minutes in length and
they are an absolute
delight to perform. Part
three may also be
performed on Tuba. For
advanced performers.
