Remarks:
'English Lute Songs' covers a variety of styles by composers such as Blow, Dowland, Campion, Lawes and Purcell, with works for voice and lute and some for lute alone. It is a disc that aims to look beyond the standard repertoire for countertenor and lute and hopefully introduce listeners to some lesser known pieces which will delight and enthrall. Robin Blaze and Elizabeth Kenny have performed these works together on the concert stage to great acclaim.Reviews
