The Parley of Instruments
David Thomas, bass
How charming is beauty
With Noise of Cannon (from Musicus apparatus academicus)
The Wanton Celia
Ayres in the Comedy call’d The Funeral
Ayres in the Comedy of Courtship Alamode
Ah how sweet
Cantata: Lost is my love
The real-life Lord Croft (who knows nothing of raiding tombs) aided in the preparation of this recording of the work of a kinsman from England’s Restoration period. William Croft (1678–1727) was a contemporary of Jeremiah Clarke (with whom he shared duties as organist for the Chapel Royal) and a student of John Blow and Henry Purcell. These songs and the incidental music to two plays bear strong resemblance to the work of Croft’s teachers. The Parley of Instruments was a group that specialized in early British music.
