Britten and Dowland
Ian Bostridge, Elizabeth Kenny and Fretwork perform galliards and laments by John Dowland, and James Gilchrist and Ruby Hughes perform songs by Benjamin Britten.
Two great British tenors perform music by two great British composers. Ian Bostridge joins lutenist Elizabeth Kenny and the viol ensemble Fretwork for galliards and laments by John Dowland and a lute song from Benjamin Britten's opera Gloriana. James Gilchrist sings Britten's rarely heard Songs from the Chinese, accompanied by guitarist Christoph Denoth. To complete the programme, soprano Ruby Hughes joins James and Christoph for one of Britten's folk song arrangements, Master Kilby.
