    Join us for an evening of John Dowland songs for lute and voice.

    What's the music?

    Drew Ivarson, tenor and Daniel Keene, lute Lute & Voice

    The Poore Astronomers, tenor Drew Ivarson and lutenist Daniel Keene, present a program in celebration of the life and music of John Dowland (1563-1626) as it will be the English composer/lutenist’s 400th anniversary of his death. All music will be performed on period instruments and sung with reconstructed pronunciation!

    Song Selection:
    If my complaints could passions move
    Can she excuse my wrongs
    Awake sweet love thou art returnd
    Wilt thou unkind thus reave me of my hart
    Flow my teares
    O sweet woods, the delight of solitarienesse
    Cleare or cloudie sweet as April showring
    Say love if ever thou didst finde
    What if I never speede
    It was a time when silly bees could speake
    The lowest trees have tops

    Where does this music come from?

    Renaissance lute songs of English lutenist/composer John Dowland (1562-1626).
