Welcome Matthew, glad to have you aboard and hope to see you around often!

Your site looks great! I will take a closer look and listen to some of the music samples as soon as I have time.

Thanks very much for the kind commments, this board looks very well supported and laid out.

Hi Merula/Matthew,

Welcome aboard.

You're site looks very interesting.
Great to see and hear some rennaisance music once in a while, and well played too - so far I've only had a listen to the "Frog Galliard"... there's a great deal of "retrospect" in the music of Dowland, to me in anycase. There's really nothing like it to extract oneself from the world outside to a whole new place.

Look forward to see you around the forums.

Cheers,
Thomas/corno

Hi Thomas,

Thanks for the comments, you will probably like the other Dowland piece, Mr Dowlands Midnight, this is a really sombre and interesting glimpse into Dowland's personality.

Some of the other clips will hopefully interest you, you are welcome to reserve a copy of the album / sign the guestbook, the feedback is really useful!

The Towner later in the sound clips and in the album, are both rather reflective of a rennaisance and lute atmosphere, although a jazz guitarist Ralph Towner's genius and simplicity when writing for the guitar are synonimous with Dowlnad's for the lute.

welcome aboard.
