4.0 out of 5 stars
Wonderful reading of Elizabethan and Jacobean pieces,

This review is from: Fantasies, Ayres and Dances - Elizabethan and Jacobean Consort Music (Audio CD)
Elizabethan/Jacobean music is not particularly accessible to the average listener, who generally hears a bowdlerized background music at a Renfest or gets some sense of it through Anglican church harmony. Julian Bream, however, has given the music a face through his recordings of Dowland, Cutting, and others. His playing and arranging for the Consort is historically accurate - he plays with authentic lute thumb-under technique, for example, and the vocalists sing in what is thought to be accurate fashions.
It's an excellent recording, recommended as an introduction to this music.

I have always enjoyed this CD. So much when it became mislaid I have replaced it. I first listened to it over 20 years ago in a shop and first brought it that day.
