piano (clavichord, keyboard instrument, harpsichord)
editor: Hogwood, Christopher
The music of John Dowland, the greatest English lute composer of that Golden Age, circulated widely in keyboard adaptations during his lifetime, suitable for performance on harpsichord, virginals or clavichord. Thirty such arrangements and intabulations made by his contemporaries in England and mainland Europe including Byrd, Peter Philips, Ferdinando Richardson, Scheidt, Schildt, Scheidemann, Sweelinck and many anonymous settings from tablatures in Lüneburg, Krakow, Stockholm, Florence, Turin, Copenhagen and elsewhere are gathered together for the first time in this collection.
Multiple versions of the most popular pieces such as Lachrymae Pavan, Piper’s Galliard, the Frog Galliard and Can she excuse permit comparison between contemporary arrangers and their techniques; other favourite numbers include the Battle Galliard, the pavan ‘Solus cum sola’ and Lady Layton’s Allmaine, several transcribed and published for the first time.
A full listing of all known keyboard arrangements of Dowland is included as an appendix.
With introduction, concordances and critical notes by Christopher Hogwood, well known for his work on English baroque repertoire, both as musicologist and performer.
