    WAIT OMG I'VE MET JOSEFIEN! She was a guest lecturer for a young artist program I was in during it's covid lockdown years. She's a great performer and artist (she paints!). She has a lot of great ideas when it comes to music and singing, she knows her craft very well (one if my favorite things that stuck with me was her advice of imagining your voice as an animal, it helps imagine and characterize your voice. The other thing that stuck with me was her accent, I loved it).

    Finally, I found a youtuber who plays the lute, theorbo, et la guitare baroque (I don't have the english word for it, so this french). God, I love Dowland so much, you honor him by playing so majestucally, and for this, thank you.

      The same reason we like great tragedies so much and not only comedies. The quality is the same, but the darker works of art answer an inner need we have.
