Review:
Very enjoyable
I think this is rather lovely. Capirola was a new composer to me, who turns
out to have written some very worthwhile lute pieces. They don't have immense melodic and harmonic
inventiveness, but they are very enjoyable and have the musical content and
variety to keep me interested throughout the disc. Frederico Marincola's playing is very good;
smooth, expressive and well adapted to Capirola's style. The recording is good, so the lute sounds
full and quite beautiful at times.
In short, this is a good disc of enjoyable Renaissance lute
music, well played and recorded. If you
have any interest in this period or in the lute, I can recommend this warmly.
