From Rosey Bow'rs (Don Quixote) by Henry Purcell
Otherwise known as 'The Mad Scene' from Don Quixote, an early printing of the song bears the following heading: "This was the last Song that Mr. Purcell Sett, it being in his Sickness." The words of the song are meant to be comical, as a chambermaid feigns madness as part of a plot against Don Quixote. Soprano Rebecca de Coverly Veale Pianist Samuel Swinerton Recorded July 2022
