Blessed Cecilia celebrated in style by Gabrieli Consort & Players

Jane Shuttleworth, 23rd November

22 November, St Cecilia’s day, lends itself perfectly to music by two of Britain’s greatest composers. Henry Purcell and Benjamin Britten both wrote pieces to celebrate Cecilia as patron saint of music, and Britten was inspired and enriched by Purcell’s music.
