About the Henry Purcell Society of Boston: "The Henry Purcell Society of Boston" was founded in November of 2013. The inaugural concert, "Welcome to all the Pleasures," was a huge success, with a full house in the audience and a celebration to follow for the musicians and audience members. In its first critical review, the Henry Purcell Society of Boston was said to have "presented a smash-bang debut" to a "packed house," and that audiences should "keep an ear out for this new ensemble."(Boston Music Intelligencer).
