Description
String Quartet – Semper Dowland Suite
This is a set of six part songs by John Dowland, set for string
quartet. All are beautifully crafted little tunes, mostly with a sad
theme of unrequited love, but all with a sense of poignancy and
delicacy.
These songs will add an element of polish and refinement to any evening of
Renaissance/Baroque music. All the songs are easy to play and should be
well within the capability of even junior ensembles.
The songs are:
1. Shall I Strive with Words to Prove
2. Go, Crystall Teares
3. Come Again, Sweet Love Doth Now Invite
4. In This Trembling Shadow
5. Fine Knacks For Ladies
6. Now, O Now, I Needs Must Part
