Overview
Wigmore Hall’s acclaimed Purcell series closes infitting style with a survey of the composer’s chambermusic.
Trevor Pinnock, a pioneer of period-instrument performance, is joined by an outstanding trio of string players in a programme complete with Purcell’s Italianate sonatas in four parts, along with Handel’s Trio Sonata in G minor HWV391, part of a set of six that are arguably considered the peak of the trio sonata genre.
