Please post if you figure it out. I swear I heard it on the radio a couple of days ago (classical station) but they never announced the title.
shareSee what you can find on Wikipedia?
I was fairly sure it was Purcell. though😊
The theme for the opening titles of each episode is the "Trumpet tune (Warlike consort)" from Act V of Henry Purcell's opera King Arthur. The theme for the closing credits of each episode is the second piece, a Rondeau, of Henry Purcell's incidental music, composed about 1695, to Aphra Behn's 1676 play Abdelazer, or The Moor's Revenge.share
That's it! Thanks. Something to add to my play list on youtube. 🎼🎶
