performed by Ronn McFarlane (mandora), Ronn McFarlane (lute)
composed by Anonymous, Anonymous, English, Anonymous, Jane Pickeringe's Lute Book, Anonymous, Scottish, Anonymous, Straloch Lute Book, English Traditional, Scottish Traditional

Since lutenist Ronn McFarlane's first Dorian disc The English Lute Song was both critically and financially successful, it was all but inevitable that one of his subsequent discs for Dorian would feature lute works from elsewhere in the British Isles. And so here we have McFarlane's The Scottish Lute: 56 tunes drawn from four different seventeenth ...

composed by Anonymous, English, Anonymous, Scottish, English Traditional, John Dowland, Nicolas Vallet, Scottish Traditional, Thomas Ravenscroft

American-German bass Joel Frederiksen, one of an impressive parade of American-born early music performers who have moved to Europe in order to realize their talents fully, here takes on repertory that is usually associated with a specific sound -- with an English countertenor, accompanied by a gently brushed lute, aimed at a refined sort of ...

A Scottish Lady Mass more music like this

performed by Red Byrd, Yorvox
composed by Anonymous, Scottish

This doesn't quite fall into the category of music to bring along if your golf-crazy spouse is going to St. Andrews in Scotland to play the Old Course there -- the disc presents a specialized medieval repertory in such a way that, although the music is listenable enough, it won't be really clear to a newcomer what's going on. And, booklet editors ...

Felix Femina: Scottish Medieval Polyphony (2007) more music like this

performed by Canty, William Taylor (clarsach)
composed by Anonymous, Scottish, Anonymous, St. Andrews Music Book

Canty, the Scottish women's quartet specializing in early music, was founded in 1998, the 900th anniversary of Hildegard's birth. The group in many ways resembles Anonymous 4 in the purity of the individual voices and warm vocal blend, (although they occasionally miss the spot-on perfect intonation), and in the type of repertoire it sings. The ...

Land of Heart's Desire (2005) more music like this

performed by Lisa Milne (soprano), Sioned Williams (harp)
composed by Anonymous, Scottish, Scottish Traditional

The music on this disc would have been the talk of London, or at least Edinburgh, about a century ago, during the first "folk revival," but nobody on the classical side has recorded it much lately. (Some tunes, of course, are well known to Scottish folk musicians, and part of the "Benbecula Bridal Procession," track 9, even appears on an Enya ...

A Dorian Portrait presents over an hour's worth of music drawn from the label's 1991 catalog. The first half of the sampler is devoted to early music, and generous servings from the Baltimore Consort, Julianne Baird, and Ronn McFarlane show Dorian's strength in this field. These Renaissance dances and songs are finely executed and performed with ...

This disc is anything but an attempt at a historically accurate interpretation of English lute songs; the booklet, indeed, cheerfully states that "lute accompaniments have been written combining period technique with original ideas reflecting the individual character of the songs." Those accompaniments might in many cases almost be described as ...
