A new script by Stewart Harcourt weaves together Purcell’s most moving songs and choral works in a portrait of loss, love and the joy of music that endures. 

Featuring baroque instrumentalists, soprano and baritone soloists, and brought to life by stage director Ben Mills and Paragon’s acclaimed director Sarah Latto.
