composed by Anonymous, Antony Holborne, Henry Purcell, John Danyel, John Dowland, John Playford, Orlando Gibbons, Thomas Morley, William Byrd

Countertenor Lawrence Zazzo's collection of lute and consort songs by English Renaissance and Baroque composers is performed with a twist; instead of using period instruments for accompaniment, Zazzo uses a saxophone quartet.

Another supremely high-concept disc superlatively executed, this package called Bara Faustus' Dreame performed by Les Witches and produced by Alpha is essentially a recital of soulfully sorrowful songs and deeply despairing dances by Dowland, Morley, Byrd, Philips, and others.
