Weep You No More, Sad Fountains

Unsurpassed in his day as a lute virtuoso, John Dowland (1563'1626) today continues to delight singers, musicians, and music lovers alike. This collection of 45 songs includes all the works in Dowland's original third and fourth books of lute songs, the composer's contributions to his son's anthology of 1610, and a dance for solo guitar.
