      Sad to consider: would females even have been allowed to do this back in Shakespeare's time? People tell me females didn't get to perform in Shakespeare's plays. Juliet would have been acted by a boy/man. To my 20th century thinking, that's just wrong. These ladies are all wonderful to my ears, and I know how to play music like this. I'd admit to needing a full night's sleep to keep up with them.

      @@micebones7544 Well, we have 21st century thinking now. I’m not sure what point there is in applying one era’s values to another era’s conditions. But it is interesting. If we go back 400 years before Shakespeare, Hildegarde Von Bingen wrote music for female singers. So values continually change.

      I have read that dowland himself was considered quite brazen for not only performing in womans attire and in countertenor but also performing with women often. I would consider him a groundbreaker in not just that but his liberal mix of styles from across the continent, and i consider it in the vein of modern pop music.@@micebones7544

      @@flyshacker Hildegard wrote her music in a convent, to be sung by the nuns. And there have been quite a few composer-nuns and singer-nuns throughout the centuries.
      In Shakespeare's time, families and groups of friends (both male and female) would get together after dinner with their music books and sing/play madrigals and other music together. But the English church and the English stage had prohibitions against girls and women performing at the time. Interestingly, in some other European countries, women were allowed to perform on stage.

    Oh. My. GOODNESS!!! This was simply amazing. It's hard to choose my 'favorite' aspect of this performance because the entire piece, start to finish, top to bottom, is superb. The lute?? Please... David did it FAR more than 'justice,' he made it sing. Incredible technique and he stayed in that perfect place sort of in the background, and sort of featured. That is a very difficult balance to strike. The recorder solo by Chiu? I've never heard a recorder played like THAT! I have a completely new respect for the instrument after hearing it so masterfully played! The vocals? Simply outstanding! I can't tell from the credits which is which, so I'll call them soprano and alto. Soprano is obviously well-trained and has a delightful voice. The alto? I might surprise everyone, but SHE was my 'favorite.' Her lower harmonies were absolutely perfect both in pitch and in volume and in timing. She supported, rather than overpowered, the lead in just the right measure. This, to me, was the most unexpected and enjoyable part of the piece. Overall?? Extraordinary performances by every single member. Just WOW!!!!

    Scintillating performance from all involved. A someone trained in the English choral tradition, most of the Dowland performances on RUclips are far too fruity and Italianate for my taste. This ensemble understands the dry and crisp style that suits this music so well.
    These are artists with a deep understanding of the composer and the period - and it's a joy to listen to their work.

      I'm not so sure - the English of 1600 was far broader, this is RP, an issue of the 1930s which became questioned in HIP thinking in the 1980s. Dutch tonality is far closer to the original.

      @@DavidOfWhitehills Try studying catches. These are like loop-station rounds, where the rests in each part align to produce something obscene. Pub songs.
      This is also the period when folk started to become common, particularly Scottish. Playford's Dancing Master is a first collection, followed by the Beggar's Opera.
      Headed the other way, Elizabeth I preferred dance, although some songs are in Shakespeare.
      On the Continent, you can go back far further, to the German and Spanish repertoires of the 14th Century onwards.
      What you may be suffering from is a surfeit of castrati. This produced an effete tone of countertenors in the Britten circle, typified by Alfred Deller: you should offset that with Tom Allen and Geraint Evans, whose wife was my own mentor.

Short vowels, and flabby consonants. Sting went some way towards it, in his use of Geordie, which is close to the Burgundian Flemish of the 15th Century, the starting point of an entire school of Renaissance composition.

    Beauty at its best, in any sense: music, the ambiance, the day, the ladies, flutes, and the guitar player. Awsome!

    Oh, now this woke me up!
    I have only ever heard it sung by a single voice. The part-singing made my goosebumps get goosebumps.
    Add to that the amazing arrangement with the three recorders to keep the lutanist on his toes....
    Took me back to my school days, this did.

    Wow. Aside from the sheer musicality of that session, I'm surprised at the acoustics of that room. Just by looking, I wouldn't have guessed that it would have been possible to pull that quality of sound out of that space.
