[@Per-Olovkindgren]

Ahhhh.... now everything is good again: I am here in DK listening to Dowland played by my favourite lute player! And also one of Dowlands best pieces too! Sigh... I'm in heaven. Thanks Val! You are the best!

Bonjour ! Oui cette pavane est une des pièces les plus "magiques" de Dowland.
Paul O'Dette, j'ai eu la chance immense de participer à deux de ses stages, non seulement c'est un artiste majeur, mais un homme charmant et très simple. Je regrette de ne pouvoir être à Paris en mars...
Amitiés,
Valéry

A contemplative, gentle piece. I enjoyed it Val.
Thanks,
Tim

Magnifique... Ma pavane préférée de Dowland! Interprétation absolument superbe, enthralling!! Bravo! Paul O'Dette va donner un récital de John Dowland aux Abbesses de Paris le 14 mars, vous comptez y aller j'espère? J'y serai présent!

Every time I listen to or play the part from 2:39-2:50 I have the impulse to cry:

[@luthval]

Hello Tim, one of my fav. by Dowland...

A beautiful interpretation, Val.

Thanks ;-)
In fact my father had a vinyl of Walter Gerwig playing Italian lute music, I listen to when I was 10 years old. And I wanted to play this music. Started with guitar then lute later... That's all ;-)
Best regards
Val

Ho ! Per-Olov, I honored by this kind comment...
recently I have done a lot of Dowland (while you were having good time in the tropics... arghhh... LOL) And some Sanz too...
Amitiés,

[@luthval]

I'm afraid to say No to both your demands. I won't stop playing, neither I have a DVD (but if you can give me the adress of a producer ?)
Thanks for you comment ;-)
Valéry

[@FoliesEspagne]

Will you please stop playing all those wonderful pieces?!? I try to study but when I skip to the lute music for a moment my appetite for studying is completely gone.
The way you play the lute really moves me.
Are there any DVD's available of your repertoire?

[@luthval]
