One of the world's most respected early music ensembles, The Sixteen here present Royal Welcome Songs for King James II, a collection of instrumental and vocal works by the English master, Henry Purcell. In addition to lighthearted pieces such as the catchy True Englishmen Drink a Good Health and the harpsichord piece A New Scotch Tune in G Major, Z.655, this album features two major ceremonial works—Ye Tuneful Muses and Sound the Trumpet, Beat the Drum—pieces which overflow with courtly drama.
