Purcell: Hail Bright Cecilia – Gardiner

Ode for St. Cecilia’s Day Z 328 (Hail bright Cecilia)
Sinfonie
Hail! Bright Cecilia
Hark! hark! Each tree
‘Tis Nature’s voice
Soul of the world!
Thou tun’st this world below
With that sublime celestial lay
Wondrous machine!
The airy violin
In vain the am’rous flute
The fife and all the harmony of war
Let these among themselves contest
Hail! Bright Cecilia!
Birthday Ode for Queen Mary Z 323 (Come ye Sons of Art)
Ouvertüre
Come ye Sons of Art
Sound the trumpet
Come ye Sons of Art
Strike the viol
The day that such a blessing gave
Bid the Virtues
These are the sacred charms
See Nature, rejoicing
Funeral Music for Queen Mary II. (Trauermusik)
March
Man that is born of woman
Canzona
In the midst of life we are in death
Canzona
Thou know’st, Lord, the secrets of our hearts
March
