James O'Donnell (Dir) - Robert Quinney (Orgel) // This recording presents music likely to have been sung by the Choir of Westminster Abbey during the late 1670s and early 1680s. We sing four canticles from the compendious Service in B flat by Henry Purcell, together with psalmody in reconstructed contemporary style, and anthems and motets by Purcell and his contemporary John Blow, who famously both preceded and succeeded Purcell as Organist of the Abbey.
