This CD has it all: Shakespeare period music for mood and background music, Songs actually written into Shakespeare's plays and talent infused into every track. Every song is done well by talented musicians and vocalists and the selection is great. If you are looking for the songs you see featured in your favorite Shakespeare play and would like to hear them, or would like background music to play while you peruse "The Merry Wives of Windsor" or any other plays from that time period, I recommend this CD.

Another excellent collection from the Dorian Group. It's priced right! Get your copy and enjoy while you perform some of the more mundane tasks which plague us all (the dishes, the floors, the bathrooms ,etc. Also good for background music while working, studying and so on...) Five stars for this collection (I own Elizabeth's Music from the Dorian Group also - yes there is an overlap between the two CD's, but not to the point where it's an annoyance!)

Again, five stars!

I use this CD to play music for my school's production of Shakespearean plays, especially during scene and set changes. The music is varied and true to form.

What a wonderfully evocative CD of Shakespeare's music. Well balanced choice of songs and music plus great clarity of performance.

To your joy you can find beautiful old english songs of he shakespeare era. Nice selection but incompleet. Recomended for those intrested in Shakesperean plays as well.
