"This admirable record contains songs from all three Bookes & more. … The lute solos are played in exemplary fashion by Robert Spencer. A fine single-disc introduction to Dowland's art, since it includes justly famous pieces… sung with wonderful artistry by James Bowman who brings sensitivity and intelligence to each song and characterises them tellingly. … There is no lack of contrast and each phrase is floated with imagination… recording very good, real and present."- Penguin Guide
Tracks:
Thomas Campion: Fair, if you expect admiring / I care not for these ladies / It fell on a summer's day / The cypress curtain of the night
Danyel: Eyes, look no more / Like as the Lute Delights / What delight can they enjoy
