  • David Munrow introduces a performance of the 14th century 'Tristan's Lament' on the pig-snout psaltery and the lute.This is a short clip from the BBC2 TV 5-part series 'Ancestral Voices', shown in 1976, shortly before Munrow took his own life.
    This is the Zithers episode. Munrow makes a case for the missing link between folk music and pre-classical music.
    In it, Munrow propounded the theory that early music must have had the passion and vibrancy of folk music, played today by indigenous peoples. It was recorded at a time Munrow was manically overworked and the strain sometimes shows.

    Psaltery played by David Corkhill, lute by Alan Lumsden (primarily a wind player!)

    Probably the worst lute playing on record…

      The guy was a brass/woodwind player, not a lutenist. Don’t be mean.
