5.0 out of 5 stars A Journey Back In Time!, Dec 10 2003
By 
john F. coughlin III (Saginaw, Michigan United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Early Venetian Lute Music (Audio CD)
This is a wonderful CD! Beautifully recorded in St. Andrews Church in Toddington, England! The quiet melodies of each piece are different enough that you will never get bored playing it over and over again!The next time you have a bad day, or come home from work some night with frayed nerves, try this!Turn out all of the lights, light a candle in a jar, preferably a scented one (sounds awfully 60's doesn't it!) put this CD on the stereo, get comfortable, let your mind drift back to the 16th century, watch the candle light flicker on the walls and ceiling and feel yourself relax!!!This CD is a lot cheaper than a bottle of tranquilizers or a visit to the shrink!BEWARE: Don't substitute Lute music played on an acoustic guitar! A Lute has different dynamics, nuances and colours!Good Listening To You!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Highly relaxing, July 8 2003

(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Early Venetian Lute Music (Audio CD)
I discovered this CD quite by accident. I had been listening to two solo albums by Jan Akkerman, at one time the guitarist in Focus. Amid all the rock and jazz-rock tunes, it was clear that his solo lute recordings were much the best aspects of the two CDs. I resolved to buy a John Dowland CD, and this album also came up in the search.
This has quickly become the favourite of my lute CDs. The others feature singing -- usually by a counter-tenor -- and while that is pleasant enough, it places the music firmly in another time.

Without the singing, we can place this album almost anywhere we want: ambient, rock, classical, music to work to. There's a nostalgic quality to several of the pieces here: they are so close to musical scales that they distantly remind me, as a child of the 1960s, of the themes to 'Camberwick Green' and 'Trumpton'. This is music that it is impossible to dislike.

Until we see the advent of 'The Only Lute Album You'll Ever Need', this has to be the main contender for that title. But please also look up 'John Dowland -- In Darkness Let Me Dwell' on ECM.

5.0 out of 5 stars Simply WONDERFUL!!!! just amazing., Jan 31 2006
By Hector Becerra Trigoso "Xtor" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Early Venetian Lute Music (Audio CD)
One of the best-buy i have made since long time ago. A high quality CD that can be enjoyed in every moment. Beautiful melodies, you can feel the ancient times with those, and you can try to imagine how could it be medieval life.
