Four singers, five viol players and a solo lutenist bring to life the full spectrum of his joyful, introspective and meditative genius. A rare opportunity to experience the emotional depth of Renaissance music.In a landmark tribute to John Dowland’s 400th anniversary, a distinguished early music ensemble presents an evocative programme that bridges poetry, lyricism and consort music.
