Love Bade Me Welcome

Songs and poetry from the Renaissance


anon.:

Zouch his march

Dowland:

Flow my teares (Lacrimæ)

Say love if ever thou didst find

Lachrimae Pavan, P. 15

Me, me, and none but me

Come again, sweet love doth now invite

Johnson, R:

Lady Hatton's almain

The second witches dance

Hark! Wot ye what?

Jones, Robert:

Though your strangeness

My complaining is but feigning

Once did I serve a cruel heart

Sweet Kate

What if I seek for love of thee?

Lie down, poor heart

And is it night?

Grief of my best love's absenting


James Bowman, Daniel Taylor (counter-tenors), Frances Kelly (harp), Elizabeth Kenny (lute), Mark Levy (gamba), Ralph Fiennes (recitation)

This programme has been devised by Daniel Taylor and the Theatre of Early Music to present the idea of love as painted by poets and composers between 1560-1630. The musicians are joined by critically acclaimed Shakespearean actor Ralph Fiennes who recites poems by Shakespeare, Sir Walter Raleigh, Ben Jonson, Thomas Campion and others. These poems intersperse a collection of songs, duets and instrumental pieces by Dowland, Robert Jones and Robert Johnson.

*****

“Countertenor Daniel Taylor - the ensemble's artistic director - has a sweet, supple voice which complements James Bowman's darker, plangent sound. Lute, viol and harp are sensitively played by Elizabeth Kenny, Mark Levy and Frances Kelly, providing aptly soft voiced accompaniments for this most intimate of repertoires. ...if this beguiling music is not enough to seduce the ear, Ralph Fiennes's measured, thoughtful recitations surely will. A haunting collection...”
