John Dowland: Lachrimae Antiquae Pavan (1604)
The viol section of the Finnish Rso
23 February 2015, Musiikkitalo, Helsinki, Finland

In autumn 2014 three cellists and one bass player from the Finnish Radio symphony orhestra did something that probably had not previously been done in the history of the radio orchestras: they got together and formed a viol section within the orchestra. Except for the leader of the consort, Jukka Rautasalo, the other Rso musicians did not have previous experience of either consort playing or viol as an instrument. They started pretty much with basics in Autumn 2014.

After few months of intense rehearsing the viol section eventually debuted at the Rso concert on 27 February 2015, playing Dowland's Lachrimae Antiquae as an opening number and after the concert giving a consort resital of John Jenkins, Christopher Tye, Henry Purcell and some more of Dowland.

As the fifth consort member was a professional violist working and living outside Helsinki, I had an opportunity to work as a rehearse player in the consort between October 2014 and February 2015, thus getting a chance to see how astonishingly quickly those top professional orchestra musicians were able to learn the basic tehcniques of viol, as well as digest the aesthetics of consort playing.

This rehearse documentation was done few days before the concert. (O.V. March 2015)

The viol section of the Finnish Rso:
Jukka Rautasalo, treble (dir.)
Timo Alanen, tenor
Miika Uuksulainen, bass
Teemu Kauppinen, violone
(with Olli Virtaperko, tenor)

Everytime I watch this video, literally, tears roll down face. What a superb bow-working and expressive phrasings. "Semper Download, semper dolens".

Magnifique. Une poésie française a été interprétée sur cette musique.

That bass is possibly the sexiest viol ever! (spoken as a Tenor-viol-player who covets bass..;-) )

Tears are flowing from Mother Earth and our Planet with the deaths
and suffering of all our peoples during this tragic Pandemic.
This piece perfectly captivates my emotion.

Anyone else found this through Philip K. Dick's book references?

Did John Rutter base "Weep O Mine Eyes" off of this piece?
