Extractions: Let's hope Bobby McFerrin never has a chance to hop into a time machine and zip back 400 years to cheer up John Dowland. ``Don't worry, be happy'' is the last thing we'd want Dowland to hear. If he'd followed that advice, the world would have been deprived of some exquisitely sorrowful music. However sad Dowland's most famous music may be, it's moving rather than depressing. And Dowland certainly didn't limit himself to pieces in a dolorous mood. But melancholy was the mode in Elizabethan England, and Dowland was the most stylish composer of his time. Dowland followed a dual career as a composer and lutenist. A lutenist is a player of the lute, a resonant pear-shaped instrument having several pairs of gut strings; it's played like a guitar. The lute was to English music around the year 1600 what the guitar is to popular music today. And in Dowland's time, there was hardly any difference between popular and classical instrumental music. The young Dowland converted to Catholicism during a visit to Paris in 1580. He later claimed that this was the politically incorrect move that excluded him from employment at the Protestant court of Elizabeth I. (Remember that Elizabeth's father, Henry VIII, resented incursions on his earthly authority from the Vatican and broke with the Catholic Church, establishing the Church ofEngland.)

Dowland was a composer of church, instrumental and secular vocal music, in particular of one of the best known songs of the period, "Flow my Teares". He himself provided an apt pun on his own name - Dowland, semper dolens (Dowland, always grieving) - although he had a reputation as a cheerful man. He is widely regarded today as an important figure in the development of lutine harmonies. John Dowland Works Dowland was above all the composer of lute-songs, publishing his first collection of airs in 1597, followed by a second in 1600 and a third in 1603. He left over eighty secular songs and these include Come again: sweet love doth now endite, Fine knacks for ladies and Flow my teares, among many others of moving intensity.

Extractions: England extract from Lachrimae or seven teares ( Astrée E8724 JOHN DOWLAND was no less famous for his misfortunes than for his works. This subtle, elusive and strangely-behaved character led rather an adventurous life. Hailed as an Anglorum Orpheus of almost divine powers, he inspired more comments and praises than most great musicians 'of his generation. In the gallery of Shakespearian heroes he could be placed between Hamlet and the Jacques of As You Like It Such was the climate surrounding Dowland's emblematic work, the Lachrimae. In the manner of these Elizabethan painters who pictured the exemplary history of their model in simultaneous scenes, Dowland here gave the ideally condensed vision of his musical universe. Indeed the Lachrimae collection does not belie the elegiac portrait of the composer; page after page it adds finishing touches to it, and also makes it more amiable since, as Dowland says in his preface : though the title doth promise teares, vnfit guests in these ioyfull limes, yen no doubt pleasant are the teares which Musicke weepes, neither are teares shed always in sorrow, but some time in ioy and gladness. Born in 1563 JOHN DOWLAND was almost exactly contemporary with Sweelinck and Shakespeare. Of his origins and early beginnings as a musician nothing is known. As an adolescent he was 'servant' to the ambassadors of England to the court of France, spending over four years in Paris between 1580 and 1586. During this stay which must have greatly contributed to raising his social status and orienting his musical evolution - Dowland was converted to Catholicism under the influence of the English emigrants. Back in England, he got married and in 1588 was admitted to his degree of Bachelor of Music from Christ Church, Oxford, on the same day as Thomas Morley.

Extractions: Dowland, John John Dowland (1563 - 1626), of English or possibly Irish origin, was born in 1563, probably in London. He was a lutenist of distinction but failed, allegedly because he was a Catholic, to win a position in the royal service, seeking his fortune abroad at Kassel and later, in 1598, at the court of Christian IV of Denmark. He was forced by debt to return to England in 1606 and eventually won appointment as one of the King's Lutes in 1612. He performed during the funeral ceremonies of King James I and himself died the following year. Dowland was the composer, in particular, of one of the best known songs of the period, Flow my teares, music much imitated, epitomising the fashionable humour of the day, melancholy. Dowland himself provided an apt pun on his own name - Dowland, semper dolens (Dowland, always grieving) - although he had a reputation as a cheerful man, yet professionally embittered by his long failure to find employment at court. Dowland was above all the composer of lute-songs, publishing his first collection of airs in 1597, followed by a second in 1600 and a third in 1603. He left over eighty secular songs and these include "Come again: sweet love doth now end", "Fine knacks for ladies" and "Flow my teares", among many others of moving intensity. For the lute itself Dowland wrote Fantasias, and dance-movements, including Pavanes, Galliards, Almains and Jigs. Other Instrumental Music The best known of Dowland's instrumental compositions is his famous "Lachrimae" or "Seaven Teares", for five viols and lute. This work includes a series of dance-movements, chiefly Galliards, and solemn Pavanes, using the theme familiar from the lute-song "Flow my teares".
