Change of Artist

Please note that due to unforeseen circumstances Benjamin Hulett (tenor) is no longer able to perform in this concert. We are grateful to Thomas Hobbs (tenor) for stepping in as his replacement.

Partsongs, solo songs and dialogues for voices and lute make up the last of Dowland’s songbooks, published in London in 1603. Dowland cultivates a quality of seriousness in its 21 pieces, expressed in such heart-rending songs as ‘Time stands still’, ‘I must complain’ and ‘Weep you no more, sad fountains’.
