This concluding chapter begins with a close reading of the song ‘Music for a While’ by Henry Purcell to bring together the different emotional states that this book explores. For a modern audience, it is tempting to view music in a wholly superficial way as though it is just a piece of entertainment; however, if music can ‘beguile’ its listener’s ‘cares,’ as the lyric claims, and can stop people from feeling emotions they do not want to feel, then music is a particularly powerful tool. The chapter summarises all the different ways in which the playwrights discussed in this book use music to manipulate their audiences, before discussing some recent interpretations of musical scenes from Caroline plays and how audiences on and off the stage responded to them. The book ultimately concludes by arguing that because music is evidently such a powerful presence and has a clear impact on its listener’s emotions, music and emotion are intimately linked in performance. The book also informs modern readers of Caroline plays and audiences watching revivals of these plays that music is not just a mere add-on; it is essential to the performance as it enhances and develops meaning.
