Ode on the Death of Mr. Henry Purcell

Ode on the Death of Mr. Henry Purcell is a funeral ode by English composer John Blow, composed in 1695. The piece employs Baroque choral forces and continuo with sombre vocal lines, drawing on the English Restoration sacred and ceremonial tradition and occupying a place among Blow's late-17th-century choral works and responses to Purcell's death.
