Composer: John Dowland
Artists: Siphiwe McKenzie (soprano), Adriano Sebastiani (classical guitar), Riccardo Bini (classical guitar)
Renowned in his own time as a precociously adept diplomat - maybe spy - in the service of the English aristocracy, working across the Catholic-Protestant divide, John Dowland was appointed lutenist at the court of Christian IV of Denmark, a post that he held for eight years. A further six years later, in 1612, he finally secured the post as lutenist at the court of James I, a highly prestigious position that he had unsuccessfully applied for in 1594, during the reign of Elizabeth I. In 1621 he was awarded the title of “Doctor of Musicke”, and died five years later.
His songs and airs, for lute with and without voices, date from this last quarter-century of his career. They were lucratively published in several books during this period, when his fame spread throughout Europe as the finest lutenist of his generation. He is one of England’s greatest song composers, to be ranked with Purcell and Britten. He effectively created the English type of lute-song, synthesizing elements from the broadside ballad, dance music, the consort song and the madrigal.
The selection on this disc is drawn from the first three books. The first of them is the least adventurous, scored originally for four voices and lute, and laid out in simple strophes. The second and third books then move between solo pieces and more elaborate dialogues, with contrapuntally intricate accompaniments. Many of Dowland’s most famous songs are featured, including Weep you no more, sad fountains and If my complaints could passions move. They are interspersed with pavans and galliards for solo lute to make a satisfyingly varied experience, and a superb introduction to the art of Dowland.
Both of Adriano Sebastiani’s previous albums for Brilliant Classics have featured guitar-accompanied song: Rossini (BC94628) and Spohr (BC94274). Here he accompanies a rising soprano star who has sung in the company of the Nürnberg State Opera, and in houses across Europe and Asia as well as her native Canada.
John Dowland is without doubt one of the most famous English composers, the foremost exponent of the Golden Age of the Elizabethan Era of the 16th and 17th Century.
Dowland’s songs fully reflect the spirit and tastes of the Elizabethan age, with their tendency towards deep melancholy and their pronounced focus on darkness, moonlight and night-time. Despite the predominance of grief, sadness, tears and death there are also songs in which a sense of optimism, lightness and joy prevail.
This new recording uses the classical guitar as accompanying instrument, played by Adriano Sebastiani. The young soprano Siphiwe McKenzie was twice nominated by the prestigious magazine Opernwelt as “Young Singer of the Year”. She sang in important theatres such as the Wiener Volksoper, Teatro Colon (Buenos Aires), Teatro Regio di Parma, Leipzig State Opera and many more.

I have no idea of what she says, but she makes me cry. These songs have such an ethereal, melancholic beauty... Thanks for sharing.
I love classic guitar for its calmness, and I love soprano
Творчество Джона Дауленда - жемчужина Северного Возрождения. Его композиции у меня вызывают невероятный букет эмоций, особенно от " Now, O Now, I Needs Must Part" наворачиваются слезы.
Как же прекрасно то, что мы имеем возможность услышать эту чудесную музыку, эти звуки эпохи грандиозного расцвета европейской эстетики!
Да здравствует Европа! Long live Europe!
Отлично сказано!
Europe has a past, but I wonder if it will be a future... Hopefully yes - in every case future archeologists will find a lot of interesting music/art pieces
Wunderschöne Interpretation dieser fein komponierten Meisterwerke im lyrischen Tempo mit herrlicher Stimme der genialen Sopranistin und schimmerndem Klang der genialen Gitarre(n). Alles ist echt bezaubernd!

Dear Classics I first heard Dowland from an album from Nonesuch records in the late sixties. It's so wonderful. Could you find it? Thanks
Dear John, could it maybe be John Dowland Songs & Ayres?
That's Because the Human brain tends to look at the beginning and end of a word and not the middle and then decides what the word is without looking properly
