Smith gracefully illuminates the elegance of the lute.,

This review is from: Jacques de Gallot: Pièces de Luth / Smith (Audio CD)
The lute, once virtually the national instrument of France, has been around for 2000 years. Although its popularity declined severely over the last 300 years, it is now experiencing a resurgence of interest, inspired in good part by English artists such as Julian Bream and Hopkinson Smith. On this CD, Smith's virtuoso command of his 11 string lute illumines the profound artistry of these 17th century suites and pieces by Jacques de Gallot. His playing conjures up visions of lovely ladies and their aristocratic swains, engaged perhaps in games of chess, and enlivened by galant conversation. This is music pervaded by sensibility and provides an ideal background for the most delicate dalliance.
