- Suite 1 for Harpsichord
[3:12]
Four short movements (Prelude-Almand-Courante-Minue) . Purcell at his simplest and most beguiling, Prelude and Almand share a simple rhythmic echo
between left and riight hands. The Courante partakes of this device at the end, but has a slightly orgnamented melody. The minuet uses more
ornamentation in a more homophonic (hymn-like) setting.
