For The Sacred and the Profane, one of the most original composers of the seventeenth century, Henry Purcell, produced a uniquely English form of music by incorporating French and Italian stylistic elements into his compositions. Two celebratory odes, written to commemorate St. Cecilia and Queen Mary respectively, serve as the backdrop for a festive program featuring Purcell's varied and unique works.
