A powerful climate protest song ...
Annie Lennox has teamed up with London City Voices to perform a massed online version of Henry Purcell’s (1659-1695) heart-wrenchingly beautiful ‘Dido’s Lament’.
In a multitrack video shared online, the Eurythmics legend joins the choir for a contemporary version of the aria, which has lost none of its potency in 2021 – a staggering 332 years after it was written.
Lennox’s voice sounds stunning and the choir, with a harpsichord-like keyboard accompaniment from the soloist herself, adds a sublime texture to the contemporary performance.
‘Remember me’, Lennox’s powerful vocals intone. ‘Remember me...’
