Come Ye Sons of Art

Album by Henry Purcell & Margaret Ritchie & Alfred Deller

Come Ye Sons of Art is an ode by English composer Henry Purcell, composed in 1694. The work is a Baroque choral composition for soloists, chorus and orchestra, characterised by contrapuntal writing and a mix of lyrical and ceremonial passages, and it sits within Purcell's late output as an example of his mature approach to English courtly and occasional music.
