In besungener Tragik nur denkbar knapp und streng an der Höchstwertung vorbei, macht das Ensemble Jupiter die Dowland-Feierstunde in Köln aber zu einem unvergesslichen Erlebnis.

Storgårds and the BBC Philharmonic are persuasive in Also sprach Zarathustra, less so in Sibelius. Thomas Dunford soothes with Dowland and Purcell.

The Manchester Collective are one of the most successful groups of musicians who aim to bridge the gap between musicians and their audiences. 

There comes a stage in every countertenor’s career when he feels himself ready to tackle the exposed repertoire of John Dowland, and hence the need to find himself a talented lutenist.

The intimate Vancouver Playhouse was nearly full to hear Iestyn Davies and Thomas Dunford. Consisting of lute songs by John Dowland and his contemporaries, in addition to the Canadian premiere of Nico Muhly’s Old Bones, it’s hard to imagine a more artistically satisfying and entertaining way to spend an afternoon.

Amidst the furore of celebrations for the anniversaries of Verdi and Wagner, the final Chamber Prom of this season gave pause to savour the music of the great English Renaissance lutenist, singer and composer John Dowland, whose 450th birthday also falls this year.
