      Yes, but... at that time you most certainly would not be able hear this piece. A dutch writer who writes historical novels about the dutch colony in the east (being of mixed ancestry) once was asked if he would have liked to live during that time, he vehemently said "No!" I would have been a coolie!"

    I note comments that this version is too fast. Ah...sorry, the song is also a Galliard, a dance, and you can dance to this version. Which is not to say that the slower versions have no merit. In the 16th Century, music was never this or that and that Dowland's music lent itself to being neither this or that is one reason for its popularity, as far afield as Bulgaria. So beautiful version. Soprano makes herself into an instrument and sings beautifully too.. This has now become my favorite version of the song.

  • @openmusic3904
    @openmusic3904 5 років тому +59

    The English classical tradition is absolutely remarkable, there is a sense of genuine heart-felt expression without pretension, yet it still remains sophisticated and transcendent. It leaves the listener with a wonderful sense of authenticity, idyllic charm, and that the people the music is created for are also good, authentic, and heart-warming people. This sense seems to permeate from the renaissance English composers, the baroque, all the way to the 20th century with Ralph Vaughan Williams.
    It's a shame really that the nobility of England were too preoccupied with the continental composers to realize the gold dust they had at home. As a result, English music suffered post Baroque and didn't really recover until the 20h century. As an Englishman myself, this is a massive shame in my eyes.

    • @andyjackson9098

      How beautifully put. This is exactly how I feel about English music.
      It is wonderfully paradoxical that something so particular to to culture of a tiny place can have such universal significance.

      @paulcaswell2813 4 роки тому +5

      English music from the mid-16th to the mid-17th centuries contains some of the finest music ever written. The composers just trip off the tongue: Dowland, Tallis, Byrd, Gibbons, Bull, Tomkins, the Farnabys et al. The fantasias of Byrd and Gibbons in particular are absolutely spectacular. The Byrd '2-in-1' will probably never be surpassed.

      I'm an Italian man, and i'm just scouring lovely music on you tube, while i'm locked in the house because of C.V. i've just listened to Pietro Mascagni's Intermezzo from Cavalleria Rusticana and there's no deny it is of incredble beauty. This is not to say that some old English music is not equally beautiful. I knew this piece before played by the great Scott Tennant on a classical guitar, i was totally charmed..yes it is a shame the music in England post Baroque suffered a little, but what we do got we cherish. At the end of the day it doesn't matter where music comes from, what does matter is, it pleasures our ears, and allows us to stay in touch with our past.

    • @paulcaswell2813
      @paulcaswell2813 4 роки тому +4

      The problem in England was the Civil War and Commonwealth (1642-1660), when music was pretty well banned. Following the restoration of Charles II (1660), English music virtually had to reinvent itself. The last of the 'old school' composers, Tomkins, died in 1656 - if only he'd lived another four years to re-found what had been. English music never really recovered from the 1640s...

    Now, O now, I needs must part,
    Parting though I absent mourn.
    Absence can no joy impart:
    Joy once fled cannot return.
    While I live I needs must love,
    Love lives not when Hope is gone.
    Now at last Despair doth prove,
    Love divided loveth none.
    Sad despair doth drive me hence,
    This despair unkindness sends.
    If that parting be offence,
    It is she which then offends.
    Dear, when I am from thee gone,
    Gone are all my joys at once.
    I loved thee and thee alone,
    In whose love I joyed once.
    And although your sight I leave,
    Sight wherein my joys do lie,
    Till that death do sense bereave,
    Never shall affection die.
    Dear if I do not return
    Love and I shall die together,
    For my absence never mourn,
    Whom you might have joyed ever.
    Part we must, though now I die.
    Die I do to part with you.
    Him despair doth cause to lie,
    Who both lived and died true.

    I pray to Almighty God that the people of Ukraine remain forever free. I hope, selfishly, that these people are safe so that when the time comes, they can make music again.

    Because we must have the lyrics.
    Now, O now, I needs must part,
    Parting though I absent mourn.
    Absence can no joy impart:
    Joy once fled cannot return.
    While I live I needs must love,
    Love lives not when Hope is gone.
    Now at last Despair doth prove,
    Love divided loveth none.
    Sad despair doth drive me hence,
    This despair unkindness sends.
    If that parting be offence,
    It is she which then offends.
    Dear, when I am from thee gone,
    Gone are all my joys at once.
    I loved thee and thee alone,
    In whose love I joyed once.
    And although your sight I leave,
    Sight wherein my joys do lie,
    Till that death do sense bereave,
    Never shall affection die.
    Dear if I do not return
    Love and I shall die together,
    For my absence never mourn,
    Whom you might have joyed ever.
    Part we must, though now I die.
    Die I do to part with you.
    Him despair doth cause to lie,
    Who both lived and died true.
