to errors on the part of my sources, these pieces are being teporarily
withdrawn. Although Lute-songs are outside the original intent of these
websites, I had included them here to give a more complete picture of
Master Dowland's work, but I would rather not mis-lead those who have
found my sites helpful. I will be exploring other sources for these
works and will remove this notice when that effort yields better fruit. Brian |
