PURCELL: THE INDIAN QUEEN - DELLER CONSORT, ALFRED DELLER (2 VINYL LP)

In quest of the (Baroque) Indies.
The subject, synonymous with exoticism in the Europe of the Golden Age, pits Aztecs against Incas on the stage: Purcell died before finishing the music, but what he left to accompany this staged entertainment is nonetheless a swan-song of exceptional beauty.
