'If music be the food of love, Z. 379c by Henry Purcell (1659-1695)  Rowan Pierce, soprano  Richard Egarr, harpsichord  If music be the food of love, sing on till I am fill\'d with joy; for then my list\'ning soul you move with pleasures that can never cloy, your eyes, your mien, your tongue declare that you are music ev\'rywhere.  Pleasures invade both eye and ear, so fierce the transports are, they wound, and all my senses feasted are, tho\' yet the treat is only sound. Sure I must perish by our charms, unless you save me in your arms.  Purcell composed three different settings of this text. This is the third, which was printed July 1695 in the second book of Deliciae Musicae. The first two (one a reworking of the other) had been simple strophic settings; the third an ecstatic evocation of music as an incitement to love.
