    450 years ago, some craftsman made this instrument. If someone told him it'd still be enriching people's lives in a half-millennium, he probably wouldn't have believed it.

    The emotions this guy must feel, playing a 500 years old instrument! And he really knows how to make it sound well.

    There are those who regard some of Mr. Rondeau’s performances as eccentric. I greatly enjoy his playing. The young man is on fire, and should play for as long as he burns….

    It's a shame that English composers, after the Renaissance, aren't remembered to the same extent as continental composers. There's a lot of stunning musical output from England that is quite unique compared to German, Italian, and French.
    With regards to English baroque music, I describe it as: Refined music, yet more directly expressive and grounded than baroque music of the continent, which can sometimes veer into grandiose and lofty(see J.B. Lully)

      I’m usually skeptical about comments in which the writer states that the artist or composer(s) in the video supposedly don’t get the attention they deserve, but I have to agree with yours, wholeheartedly! I feel it’s also true of many lesser known composers who were active during the English Renaissance, as well as the breadth of musical knowledge and ability of the general population. This music is utterly captivating!
