Release Date May 12, 1997
This music is, in my opinion, one of the pinnacles of western culture. In no other era was such beautiful and profound poetry set to equally masterful music. It is like Shakespeare come to musical life, and indeed Dowland was Shakespeare's contemporary and was a high figure of the Elizebethan renaissance.
For the 4 books of songs, the Consort of Musicke's 70s recordings have yet to be surpassed, nor likely will they ever be. There are many possible ways for these songs to be sung and performed, but the Consort captures them all with unerring taste, passion tempered by high dignity. The singing, particularly Emmy Kirkby's and Martyn Hill's is often radiantly beautiful, but David Thomas and John York Skinner's does not slouch either. ... Read More:

Release Date February 08, 2000
A very enjoyable and varied selection of Scottish tunes by James Oswald (1710-1769). Oswald was a successful compoer during hs lifetime and became chamber composer to George III. This selection, which includes ten of the twelve songs entitled "Colin's Kisses", is played by Concerto Caledonia. The instruments used are those that would have been played in Oswald's time: the musicians, led by David McGuinness, play with style and precision. The soloists, Catherine Bott and Iain Paton, are both wonderful. Bott's clear soprano is almost inhumanly beautiful, and Paton's sweet yet erotic tenor reveals an enjoyment of the music which gives the already exciting tunes an extra lift. Oswald's music contains romance, sex, pathos and humour; it is joyous, ... Read More:
