Notes & Reviews:

"My colleague David Vernier rightly praised Nigel North's unhurried, sensitively inflected John Dowland interpretations... North's scholarly, extremely readable annotations and Naxos' roomy yet detailed engineering can only sweeten this disc's appeal. Highly recommended." -Classics Today (on disc #2)
