Awake, Sweet Love, Antología de la Música de Laúd [CD de audio] Jakob Lindberg, Miguel Yisrael, Nigel North, Christopher Wils

In this 14-CD compendium, Brilliant Classics pays tribute to the lute, an instrument that was at the forefront of music for several centuries. The lute features some of the biggest names in music history. This anthology contains all the music of John Dowland, one of Britain's most prolific Renaissance composers. His extraordinary and varied production is accompanied by composers of the stature of Henry Purcell and Johann Sebastian Bach. The collection is performed by a large number of lute soloists, all of them very renowned and with prestigious international careers. This compilation is an essential work, although this instrument is often overlooked in the history of music, and is a must-buy for anyone with an interest in the string repertoire.
