Music reviews of John Dowland: Complete Music for Solo Lute

Music Review: Särskild, min gamle vän! Lyckönskan!
Rating: 5 Stars

There are at least three CD sets of the complete solo lute music of John Dowland, by Paul O'Dette, Nigel North, and Jakob Lindberg. All three are marvelous, but I'm inclined to favor this set by the Swedish lutenist Jakob Lindberg, partly because the recording technology seems to my ears to have captured and reproduced the rich timbres of his lute more realistically than the other two, and partly because Lindberg is the right lutenist for Dowland's dance forms - galliards especially - the one whose energetic tempi most evoke the lords a-leaping and ladies prancing of Tudor England. Lindberg is an effortless technician, a lutenist whose fingers are so exact that he has no need to smudge his interpretations with indefinite legatos and slurries of notes. The core of lute technique is "touch", literally the contact of the player's figure pads with the chords of his instrument, and the "touch" that distinguishes the sound of the lute from the guitar is the measure of how much "string" one hears in balance with the scrape or flick of the finger. It's the pure sonority of "touch" that makes Lindberg and O'Dette the most admired performers on the Renaissance lutes used for the music of Dowland.

Dowland's solo lute music ranges from strophic dances that might easily be adapted to "Bluegrass" or "Celtic Revival" performances to elaborately contrapuntal and moody fantasies, comparable to his famous "Lachrymae" for viol da gamba consort. There's a sweet melancholy to Dowland's musical personality, which the composer himself noted: "Semper Dowland, Semper Dolens" - "Always Dowland, Always Grieving". But few composers have ever rendered grief so delicate and ravishing.
