jazzy_daveWell, still very close wind sailing. Meanwhile, some music to soothe the furrowed brow - or not.
John Tavener - The Bridegroom
From "Darkness Into the Light" CD by Anonymous 4 / Chilingirian Quartet.
His music is so beautiful and I just well up emotionally, goddamnit.
John Dowland - Flow my Tears
Flow my Tears is an ayre by the accomplished lutenist and composer John Dowland.
Originally composed as an instrumental under the name Lachrimae pavane in 1596, it is Dowland's most famous ayre, and became his signature song, literally as well as metaphorically: he would occasionally sign his name "Jo. Dolandi de Lachrimae"
Paul Agnew (Tenor)
Christopher Wilson (Lute)
Henry Purcell - Dido's Lament
Emma Kirby, Purcell - Dido and Aeneas
Johnny Cash - Hurt
Leonard Cohen - You Want It Darker
Enjoy.
