    Absolutely wonderful! I keep coming back over the last several years, to listen to their voices and watch these lovely young women sing with passion and the amazing ensemble playing and supporting the choir. Bravo to the conductor for leading them and bringing them to all 300,00+ of us over the years! Almost brings me to tears. Thank you all.

      I so agree. The mind-rotting garbage that one hears all the time nowadays is ludicrously called "music" and that shouting over banging beats are called "songs"! This recording is such a tonic.

    I have no idea where this event took place, but the young women making up the chorus were brilliant. Their voices have power and dramatic variation and they sung 'sound the trumpets' without trumpets and in the end I didn't notice. Great performance.

It reminded me of my youth and the path of discovery of the beauty of the world. It brightened my day in the midst of hysteria and panic over C.

    Purcell's music has always affected me on an intensely personal level, but this incredible performance is truly one of the high points of my life-long musical relationship with the composer (My wife and I made a point to visit his grave last summer when we were in the U.K.) My compliments to these inspired vocalists; we can see the joy of their own performance on their faces. And compliments also to the wonderful instrumentalists. And to think that I found this on You Tube by accident!

Like some of the others who have commented here, I've spent my life pursuing, making and surrounding myself with music - and today you brought me tears of joy. Keep making beauty in your lives, you are on the right path.

Talented refreshing kids brightening our day. Not stiff and starched. They move around, mess with their hair, tug on their clothing and SING! As noted, memory not songbook.

This all- female choir is superb and the otchestral playing sensitive and vigorous. So glad I found it.

    What a wonderful performance! I really do congratulate you all. I have rarely enjoyed Purcell so much . . . and I'm sure Henry Purcell himself is smiling in some musical heaven (and not a little flattered and amazed). You girls sang with such commitment and obvious pleasure. And your English diction was excellent. I could hear every word. I was seriously impressed.
    I am an Englishman who has known (and sung) Purcell practically all his life. My very first experience was the composer's opera 'Dido & Aeneas' (composed for a girls' school in Chelsea in about 1683). It was deeply touching to hear a Portuguese choir of young women sing the not-so-young music of my own country. Thank you.
    And give my love to Lisbon! A great city which I hope is coping well with the current pandemic (Purcell, as a boy, would have lived through the terrible London plague of 1665).

    The oboe section seemed particularly good and the orchestra as a whole was of a good quality and well directed.

    I'm late to this party but not too late to commend this vivacious and wonderful performance. I'm very familiar with the work and the energy, harmony and enunciation are first class. And no sheet music or words either. Loved the orchestra, too, particularly the wind and continuo. The rehydration stops were cute.

    In this way sing the angels. But conductor and players deserve the utmost praise as well.

    Excellent performance of this orchestra, the girls choir and its conductor. Happily surprised since the girls sing in English with very clear phrasing and good pronounciation.
    Purcell's baroque music is Real quite fine.

    Wonderful choir and orchestra. Henry Purcell is not well known musician even he was a great musician, perhaps shadowed by Haendel. The first piece of music I listen to H. Purcell the music for the funeral of Queen Mary. Thanks for giving us this concert.
