As the 17th century moved on, the English lute-song tradition represented by Dowland mixed with the latest developments from Italy and France to forge a new and distinctive style, eventually reaching a rich apogee in the songs of Purcell. This programme presents sacred and secular songs and dialogues from the latter half of that century, demonstrating the wonderfully expressive harmonic language and vivid ornamentation of composers such as Blow, Humfrey, Jeffreys and Purcell
