Born in the final years of the reign of Elizabeth 1, Henry Lawes (1602-1645) belonged to the generation which succeeded<br />

the great composers of the English Renaissance and sought to impart a <strong>new</strong> Italian-inspired musical style.<br />

In the troubled times of 17th century England Lawes was, in his lifetime, acknowledged as one of the finest composers<br />

for the voice. With extended vocal ranges, expressive melodic formulas, vibrant dissonances and the high poetic quality<br />

of his texts, Lawes is a subtle painter of the melancholy of his age, situated between John Dowland and Henry Purcell.
