Reviews

‘Those who need all of Purcell's songs at their fingertips should invest in Hyperion's three-disk survey of secular songs, with outstanding performances by Barbara Bonney, Rogers Covey-Crump and James Bowman’ (The New York Times)
This mock tragedy is one of Purcell’s shortest strophic songs, published in 1688 in the second book of The Banquet of Musick. The author berates Phillis for slighting him in favour of Damon.
