A Choice Collection of Lessons for the Harpsichord or Spinnet

Album by Henry Purcell & Angelica Selmo

A Choice Collection of Lessons for the Harpsichord or Spinnet is a posthumous collection by Henry Purcell, published in 1696. The pieces are short Baroque keyboard works that blend English ornamentation, ground-bass patterns and contrapuntal writing suited to domestic harpsichord practice, and the collection is one of the main sources for Purcell's keyboard repertory and for late seventeenth-century English keyboard music.
