Ten Sonatas in Four Parts

Album by Henry Purcell & London Baroque & Ingrid Seifert & Richard Gwilt & Charles Medlam & Richard Egarr

Ten Sonatas in Four Parts is a set of chamber sonatas by English composer Henry Purcell, published in 1683. They are written in the Baroque style for small consort or chamber ensemble, featuring contrapuntal textures, dance rhythms and imitative writing that illustrate features of late 17th-century English instrumental practice and Purcell's engagement with Italianate forms.
First released: 1994
