Album Summary

Performers

• David Pollock (Harpsichord)

Composer

• Daniel Purcell (1660 - 1717)

Notes & Reviews:

Nearly all of Daniel Purcell's surviving solo harpsichord music consists of arrangements, the only clear exception being the short Toccata, a brief essay in the style of the preludes from Henry Purcell's harpsichord suites. The Suite is a simple but effective arrangement of movements from the composer's own suite

BBC Music Magazine, March 2013
This disc makes an important contribution to our understanding of Daniel Purcell, younger cousin of the illustrious Henry...They are attractive pieces, transparently scored, though most of them lack development and breadth...Hazel Brooks and harpsichordist David Pollock give competent performances, Brooks's straight and sinewy sound informed by her experience of playing medieval fiddle.
