From Dido and Aeneas. Composed by Henry Purcell. Arranged by Willy Hautvast. Arrangements of Classical Opera and Operetta Overtures/Slow Movements. Classic Arrangement. Recorded on Above and Beyond (ML.311050720). Full set. Duration 4 minutes. Molenaar Edition #012344040. Published by Molenaar Edition (ML.012344040).The opera 'Dido and Aeneas' by Henry Purcell (1659-1695) was written for a school performance at a girls boarding school. This piece is not very requiring. The aria 'Remember Me' is composed on a chromatic descending continuous bass, one of Purcell's favorite composition methods. It is a very emotional aria in which Dido says farewell to life. --Willy Hautvast.
