HENRY PURCELL
Welcome to all the Pleasures A
Musical Entertainment PERFORM’D
On NOVEMBER XXII. 1683. IT BEING THE Festival of St. CECILIA, a great Patroneß of Music; WHOSE MEMORY is ANNUALLY honour’d by a public Feast made on that Day by the MASTERS and LOVERS of Music, as well in England as in Foreign Parts. LONDON, Printed by J. Playford Junior, and are to be sold by John Playford near the Temple Church, and John Carr at the Middle Temple Gate, 1684.
Choral Score (with piano reduction) Transcribed and edited by David Millard
Éditions Doulce Mémoire
Introduction
The present score is intended for the use of singers in conjunction with the full score and instrumental parts also available from Éditions Doulce Mémoire. All of the vocal material is the same as that in the full score. The piano reduction is a combination of a condensation of the music for strings and the realization of the thorough bass (basso continuo). No attempt has been made to distinguish the one from the other, nor has any attempt been made to transcribe exactly what the strings play. Rather, the emphasis has been on keeping the piano part playable while still conveying a sense of what the instruments play. Even so, not every note is reachable. Purcell’s original time signatures have been retained (see the full score for a complete discussion in the Editorial Note). For performers not familiar with Purcell’s conventions, the following will be helpful: does not represent ‘cut time’, but signifies a moderate tempo of four to a bar. represents a quick tempo of two in a bar, but not twice as fast as . may be read as a fairly quick 3 . 4
