One of the great Elizabethan masters of the lute, John Dowland, also was the renaissance period’s most celebrated composer for the instrument. Four centuries later, a fellow Englishman, Nigel North, became the leading interpreter of Dowland’s beautiful, melancholy creations. This 86-song box set includes Dowland’s complete Fantasies, his pavans including the most famous of its time, the “Lachrimae Pavan,“ and other principal dances of the era: pavans, galliards and almains. The English Orpheus was never better served than by this British lutenist’s complete recordings of his lute music.” —The Independent
