Thomas Pickering #6235397. Published by Thomas Pickering (A0.999536). Dido's Lament from Dido and Aeneas by Purcell has been arranged for solo recorder with an organ (or piano) accompaniment. This was originally written for solo voice with a string accompaniment, but I have reduced it down to an organ/piano part and solo recorder. This is my favourite point in the opera; this song is hauntingly beautiful and fits the recorder well. I have left the lyrics in the score so the performer can read the original text when rehearsing.

(Here in F# minor, baroque pitch, suitable for sopranos).

String Orchestra - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.766985 Composed by Henry Purcell. Arranged by Bob Delfausse. Baroque,Concert. Score and parts. 12 pages. Robert Delfausse #5324203. Published by Robert Delfausse (A0.766985). Dido's Lament, from Purcell's opera Dido and Aeneas, is far more expressive and dramatic than one would expect, given its use throughout of a ground bass (a repeated 5-bar bass line).  One key to this is that the phrases begin and end at various points in the five measures.  I've included all of Purcell's expressive techniques (particularly the suspensions) in this five-part string texture.  There is a supportive piano part throughout.  Level: intermediate or above.  Duration: 2:35 .
