London-based early music group Spiritato presents the world premiere recording of Daniel Purcell's opera The Judgment of Paris on this 2014 release. Purcell here demonstrates an endlessly inventive and innovative style in a bold attempt to create a school of all-sung English opera. Spiritato is joined on this album by director and harpsichordist Julian Perkins and the Rodolfus Choir, while the roles of the five protagonists are superbly brought to life by Anna Dennis, Amy Freston, Ciara Hendrick, Samuel Boden and Ashley Riches.
