Henry Purcell’s The Fairy Queen is semi chamber music, semi performance art. It shimmers with baroque splendor in this sharp performance by Vox Luminis. Loosely inspired by Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream, the work blends chamber music and spoken word into a feast of fantasy. Under Lionel Meunier’s direction, Vox Luminis present inner harmonies and solo voices that bring warmth to Purcell’s most enchanting creation.
