Anne will be with us for an exploration of the music and life of Henry Purcell. The area in the shadow of Westminster Abbey used to be called “The Devil’s Acre.” Henry Purcell’s entire life was spent there, and though he lived only 33 short years, Purcell penned some of the freshest, most intricate music of his day. We’ll sample some of his greatest hits as well as lesser-known treasures.
