Henry Purcell's duet "Sound the Trumpet", from the Ode for Queen Mary's Birthday, "Come, Ye Sons of Art", Z.323. Featuring members of New Trinity Baroque: soprano @Radoslava Vorgic, mezzo-soprano Dragana Popović, viol player Srdjan Stanić and harpsichordist Predrag Gosta. The recording is from the concert presented at the City Hall in Novi Sad, Serbia, on 13 September 2019, during the Novi Sad Chamber Music Festival.
The composition was written in 1694. The lyrics are attributed to Nahum Tate:
Sound the trumpet, sound the trumpet!
Sound, sound the trumpet till around
You make the list'ning shores rebound.
On the sprightly hautboy play
All the instruments of joy
That skillful numbers can employ,
To celebrate the glories of this day.
