This is a lovely performance of this piece.
This young man has it all. Most of all “ Ears for what has gone before”.
Many years ago, I played with the Cambridge City Jassband, at the old brewery in Mere.
I was astounded to see Julian Bream, sitting on the grass in front of the stage.
After our concert, sitting in my old VW Camper, I said to my wife, good grief Julian Bream, was in the audience, and how much I would like to meet him, but was too shy. Undaunted by this, my wife, disappeared, and to one of my life’s most endearing memories, returned with
Julian, who said, “ If you won’t come to meet me, I’ll come to meet you” !. Flabbergasted, we shared some beer, I fortunately had, and talked of Dowland, Jazz, and much else.
A most wonderful Maestro. But ! . The point of this ramble, is how much I admire your playing, and keeping the torch alive.
Best Wishes, and Kindest Regards, Yours, John ( Fenner).

Im unable to say how much I love dowland's music. Impressive play👌

[thomassavary]

Formidable ! votre interprétation me replonge près de trente ans en arrière, lorsqu’à peine plus jeune que vous l’êtes je découvrais John Dowland. À ce petit chef-d’œuvre d’une puissance nostalgique extraordinaire, vous rendez pleinement justice. Mille mercis.

This is a lovely interpretation of this piece. Beautifully played. Splendid resonance.

[carolciliberti-noaafederal]

Beautifully played, with so much emotion - thank you!

[LteShft]

Seeing you play this makes me question my path in life :)

*Beautiful performance that conveys the sense of the song version of Dowland while still reflecting the fact that the piece is a dance pavan. The melodic embellishments are beautifully rendered. Very refined! I hope a career as a solo lutenist opens up to you and you have the opportunity to record on famous lutes/theorbos.*

Sublime...soothing....Dowland well rendered...

Excellent performance with intense emotional resonance.

What a beautiful video! The music and the setting are so great! I subscribed immediately. I play a lot of lute music on classical guitar. It is so timeless.

[MitchBoucherComposer]

Beautiful performance, Thomas! This was really very beautiful to hear.

S'est fort sans médiator en plus bravo

[SHDWBattousai]

He's playing it in a baroque lute isn't he? does anyone have the arrangement by any chance?

[enricoorlando]

Nice playing, although a very small Lute. An 8c Lute with a 70cm string length would be ideal.
