John Dowland - Lachrimae
Les Voix Humaines Qobuz 24/96 Beautiful interpretations! Contrary to what you might have expected, the ensemble Les Voix Humaines is... a viola ensemble, without a hint of human voice. That said, the often somewhat plaintive discourse of the violas does rather recall the threnodies of the Renaissance and early baroque. And who better than Dowland, with his sombre Lachrimæ, to use purely instrumental sounds to conjure up the most human of emotions and voices? With his collection Lachrimæ, or seaven teares figured in seven passionate pavans, with divers other pavans, galliards and allemands, set forth for the lute, viols, or violons, in five parts published in 1604, Dowland created a whole musical world, most likely aimed at aristocratic amateurs, but one which provided inspiration for all his musical descendants, all the way to Britain and beyond... The five violas of the Voix Humaines and Nigel North's lute have been chosen to accompany these "seaven teares" not only with other pieces from the same book but also with a few works taken from collections published between 1600 and 1612, with the addition of a very rare piece taken from a manuscript.. © SM/Qobuz
