About This Event
Dowland was recognised as one of the greatest lute-players of his age, and although he published few in his lifetime, his legacy of compositions for the instrument runs to more than 90 pieces, ranging from short dances and catchy song-tunes to longer works of profound and complex emotion that lie at the core of the instrument’s repertory today. “True Eric Clapton of the lute” Thomas Dunford presents a selection that includes the well known Flow my teares, Can she excuse my wrongs and the extraordinary self-portrait Semper Dowland semper dolens.
“Thomas Dunford’s supple technique, combined with his passion for jazz, allows him to embellish and develop written texts with an improvisatory freedom, casting a new light on early music.” BBC Music Magazine
