パーセル：組曲「アブデラザール」よりロンド

ターフェルムジーク・バロック管弦楽団 Tafelmusik Baroque Orchestra

The rondeau was used by Benjamin Britten as the theme for his set of variations The Young Person's Guide to the Orchestra (1946). It was also used as the closing theme of the television series The First Churchills (1969), as the intro song for Intellivision video game Thunder Castle (1986), and may be heard as dancing music at the Netherfield ball in the 2005 production of Pride and Prejudice. The Britten arrangement is used as a recurrent motif in the 2012 film Moonrise Kingdom.

The complete incidental music has been recorded several times, most notably in 1976, performed by the Academy of Ancient Music conducted by Christopher Hogwood as part of their complete cycle of Purcell's theatre music on L'Oiseau-Lyre.
