Sing & Discover Online: Purcell's Dido & Aeneas

In this two-hour online video workshop, with a fifteen minute social break, conductor and singer John Hancorn and writer and broadcaster Richard Wigmore explore Purcell's semi-opera Dido and Aeneas, the story of Dido the queen of Carthage and her doomed love for Aeneas, the prince of Troy. We shall look at the music in some detail, with recorded illustrations, while participants will join in with some of the choruses.

Sing & Discover online workshops are for experienced choral singers, choirs, baroque instrumentalists and music lovers who wish to broaden their range, extend their experience, increase their knowledge of style and context, and who enjoy a challenge.
