Henry Purcell’s setting of Music for a While, from his music for the play Oedipus, by John Dryden and Nathaniel Lee (1678), was long a staple of my concert repertoire – and hard to match for its elegant and expressive beauty. This choral setting is my own attempt to do justice to the text and to the spirit of Purcell’s original.
