Choral Piece of the Day, Installment 46: When I am laid in earth ('Dido’s Lament' from Dido and Aeneas), (Purcell/Hoffman, arr.), unaccompanied soprano solo and SATB choir
Completed in 2018, and published in 2020 by Oxford University Press Music, this innovative arrangement takes Henry Purcell's most popular solo aria, the 'Lament' from his opera Dido and Aeneas, and reimagines it as a work for unaccompanied soprano solo and SATB choir, thus making a staple of the solo song repertoire available for choral performance.
