Vox Luminis and Lionel Meunier travel back to a time when London’s theatres vied to attract audiences with spectacular shows and pulse-quickening entertainments. Dido and Aeneas, possibly written for the royal court before being performed at Josias Priest’s girls’ school in the late 1680s, vanished from the stage for almost two centuries but has since secured its place among the great works of 17th-century music drama. Purcell’s opera, crowned by Dido’s death scene, is followed by his memorial works for another queen, Mary II, and other treasures chosen from the top drawer of the Vox Luminis repertoire.
