​Henry Purcell

Henry Purcell (10 September 1659– 21 November 1695) was an English composer. Although he used Italian and French stylistic elements into his compositions, Purcell's work was a uniquely English form of Baroque music. He is generally considered to be one of the greatest English composers.

Purcell is said to start composing at nine years old, but the earliest work is written in 1670, for the birthday of the King. (The dates for his compositions are often uncertain.)  He attended Westminster School and in 1676 was appointed copyist at Westminster Abbey.

Between 1680 and 1688 Purcell wrote music for seven plays. The composition of his chamber opera Dido and Aeneas is very important in the history of English dramatic music.

It was written to a libretto made by Nahum Tate, and performed in 1689 in the Dorset Garden Theatre.

It is considered the first genuine English opera, the action does not progress in spoken dialogue but in Italian-style recitative. The composition of Dido and Aeneas gave Purcell his first chance to compose a work in which the music carried the entire drama.

In 1692, he composed The Fairy-Queen (an adaptation of Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream), the score of which (his longest for theatre) was rediscovered in 1901 and published by the Purcell Society.

Purcell died in 1695 at his home in Dean's Yard, Westminster, at the height of his career.
