Published a year after his death, Henry Purcell’s eight keyboard suites were long overshadowed by his more celebrated works. They are the heirs to a characteristically English vein, shifting from humour to seriousness in delightfully casual fashion; the musical testament of a composer who died all too soon.

Henry Purcell:
Suite I in G major Z 660
Suite II in G minor Z 661
Suite III in G major Z 662
Suite IV in A minor Z 663
Suite V in C major Z 666
Suite VI in D major Z 667
Suite VII in D minor Z 668
Suite VIII in F major Z 669
