Do you have the complete anthems which take up 11 CD's worth or just a sampler? Also the same about the Odes and Welcome songs. Both of these large bodies of work I find to have the absolute best performances by the King's Consort under Robert King along with the King's Consort Choir and the Choir if New College Oxford. Also.....you should listen to the secular solo songs and the symphony songs....these are masterfully beautiful works. All of the pieces I have mentioned in this posting are to be found on the hyperion label and let me tell you....they are not cheap. Usually around 18.99 a CD. Try them out...I'm sure you'll love them. There are also the 3 part sonatas of 1683 adn the 4 part sonatas of 1696 a well as the fantazias for viol consort. I'm not sure if you have all of these on your instrumental music disc or not. I found the sonatas a 3 to have a wonderful performance by Christopher Hogwood, Christopher Coin, Rachel Podger, and Pavlo Beznosiuk on the L'Oiseau-Lyre label. For the Sonatas a 4 I reccommend the perfornamce by the Locke Consort on the Channel Label. For the Fantazias I think the best performance is clearly by the fine group called Fretwork which is on the Virgin Veritas label. --Wes
