Henry Purcell - Sonatas

Performers: The Henry Purcell Quartet Henry Purcell (10 September 1659 -- 21 November 1695), was an English composer. Although incorporating Italian and French stylistic elements into his compositions, Purcell’s legacy was a uniquely English form of Baroque music. He is generally considered to be one of the greatest English composers; no other native-born English composer approached his fame until Edward Elgar.
