Texas Early Music Project

Henry Purcell is deservedly known as England’s greatest composer before Edward Elgar and Ralph Vaughan Williams. His music is used often in movie soundtracks and his operas are revived frequently on international stages. We are thrilled to end our 2025–2026 season with music from Purcell’s eclectic repertoire for the theater, the opera, the court, the sanctuary, and the pub.

Purcell. Henry Purcell: A license to trill

Redeemer Presbyterian Church

The poetry, music, and culture of the troubadours informed and inspired musicians and poets all over Europe for generations. TEMP will perform songs, chants, and motets from southern France and northern Spain to evoke the passion, intellect, and cultural fervor that arose from Occitania, Castilla, and Galicia, making the region a center for the arts in the 11th–13th centuries.
