Renaissance music for two harps
"A Plain Song and A Toy" come from a lute tutorial of Thomas Robinson. In both tunes we can see, how a simple melody was ornamented and varied in the Renaissance lute style. Melody and accompaniment are constantly changing between the two voices.
„Le Rossignol" is a composition by an unknown lute master, which was handed down to us in the music collection of Jane Pickering. Here melody and variation sometimes run simultaneously.
"My Lord Willoughby's Welcome Home" is the work of the most famous composers composer of that era: John Dowland. The two harps interlock here to a furious sound firework, which Dowland ignited in honor of the returning Lord.
