King Arthur (1691), like Purcell’s other great scores for the stage, belongs to a highly unusual genre: it is neither a play nor an opera but a hybrid of the two known as ‘semi-opera’.

Alfred Deller’s legendary 1978 recording is one of the benchmark interpretations which introduced music lovers to Purcell’s masterpiece.
