Recognition
Donald Macleod introduces a group of devotional songs from Dowland's last publication, and a response from a contemporary composer to a song widely regarded as Dowland's finest.
In 1612, the same year that saw his last publication, Dowland finally got his heart's desire when he was given a royal appointment as one of King James I's lutes. Donald Macleod introduces a group of devotional songs from what would prove to be Dowland's last collection, plus a response from a contemporary composer to a song widely regarded as Dowland's finest.
