I recently did a recital, and my Purcell group was the following:

If music be the food of love (1st version)
There's not a swain (I had such a great time with this one!)
What can we poor females do (always amusing)

Hope this helps!

>Can anyone think of other songs/arias by Purcell that might be equally as
emotionally moving as Dido's lament?? I am thrilled that other people
through me, are getting into Purcell, because I think he is great! Now I
am just checking out other rep that might be possibly as interesting.
