H. Purcell: Music for a While (from "Oedipus") - Dragana Popović and New Trinity Baroque

"Music for a While" is probably Henry Purcell's most known song. It was composed in 1692 for a play "Oedipus", Z. 583, on the text by John Dryden and Nathan Lee. This performance features Serbian mezzo-soprano Dragana Popović, with New Trinity Baroque's Srdjan Stanić on a viol and Predrag Gosta on a harpsichord. It comes from the concert presented in September 2019 at the City Hall in Novi Sad, during the Novi Sad Chamber Music Festival. LYRICS: Music for a while Shall all your cares beguile: Wond'ring how your pains were eas'd And disdaining to be pleas'd. Till Alecto free the dead From their eternal bands, Till the snakes drop from her head, And the whip from out her hands. ABOUT US ----------------------------------------------------- Hailed by the critics as “defined, gripping, thoughtful, full of temperament, fearless” (Concert Artists Guild, New York), NEW TRINITY BAROQUE has been recognized as one of the leading early music ensembles in the world today. Founded in London in 1998, and having its base in Atlanta (USA) for many years, the ensemble has been following its founder Predrag Gosta and frequently collaborates with various international soloists from the UK, Italy, Germany, Croatia, Switzerland, Sweden, etc. The group performs on period instruments or historical replicas of the instruments from the 17th and 18th centuries. Its repertoire ranges from chamber to orchestral, from oratorios and operas, and its styles from Renaissance to Classical. Notable performances from the past include Monteverdi’s “Vespers”, J.S. Bach’s “Christmas Oratorio”, Pergolesi’s “La Serva Padrona”, Buxtehude’s “Membra Jesu Nostri”, Caldara's "Maddalena ai piedi di Cristo" and more. As an active recording ensemble, NTB published 10 CDs - the latest one featuring Buxtehude’s cantatas “Membra Jesu Nostri”. The musicians of NTB also tour regularly, where they appeared at festivals such as the Korkyra Baroque and the Varaždin Baroque Evenings Festival (Croatia), Sastamala Gregoriana (Finland), and the Belgrade Early Music Festival (Serbia), as well as early music festivals in Boston, Amherst and Charleston (USA).
