Henry PURCELL - The Fairy Queen ( extraits )
Paul Agnew decodes for the public the subtleties of Henry Purcell's vocal writing, by having extracts from the opera The Fairy Queen performed by the laureates of Le Jardin des Voix, Les Arts Florissants' academy for young baroque singers.
This music lesson is in keeping with the new production of The Fairy Queen, given on January 4 and 6, 2024 at the Philharmonie de Paris.
