4.0 out of 5 stars A Very Good Compilation of Elizabethan Music, September 26, 2001

By	Margaret P Harvey (Charlottesville, Va United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

"Elizabeth's Music" is a great cd to listen to if you are an enthusiast of ballads, the lute or old fashioned jigs. This cd really puts you in the alehouses, courts and courtyards of the Elizebethan age. The music is preformed well and the voices are very authentic and beautiful. The CD loses one star because most of the songs are on other Dorian-released CDs! I got the cd and found out most of the songs were the exact same ones on my "Shakespeare's Music" CD and other Dorian CDs. Ah well. All Elizabethan enthusiasts will enjoy this eclectic collection.

5.0 out of 5 stars Elizabeth's Music, January 11, 2009

By	D. S. HARDEN "a movie fan" (L.A.,CA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Great collection of tunes of various composers (some anonymous!) and it's priced right (I also own Shakespear's Music - same music company!). I find that it works best for me when I'm working or reading! Buy it and find out for yourself!

Five stars!

4.0 out of 5 stars You don't need a Wayback machine, December 4, 2001

By	"b__2" (Albuquerque, NM USA) - See all my reviews

Just get a CD like this one to get a broad brush review of the popular hits of the late 1500s. While I would have liked a few more recorder pieces, almost every cut was interesting in its own way. If you want just one early music CD with English songs, this is probably the one to get.
