Stokowski made a 5-movement Suite of various pieces by Purcell of which the most celebrated is "When I am Laid in Earth" from 'Dido and Aeneas.' It is played here by the Brussels Philharmonic in a splendid Tribute CD to Stokowski by Richard Egarr who admires the great maestro immensely. The whole CD is well worth acquiring by Stokowski collectors! It includes Bach, Palestrina and Cesti arrangements, as well as Egarr's own version of Handel's 'Water Music' Suite.
