Pleasant are the Tears which Music Weeps
This is a CD of a fascinating and enjoyable hour-long BBC radio broadcast made in 1968, telling the story of the life of John Dowland in words and music. The script was written by Dowland’s biographer Diana Poulton, and Geoffrey Skelton, with (very aptly chosen) music played by Desmond Dupre and David Channon on lutes, and singers. For legal reasons we cannot sell this CD; instead we are lending out copies on long loan, free of charge, for the cost of postage only. We have had plenty of copies made, so are most unlikely ever to ask for them back!
Price: free (on long loan), for cost of postage only: £2 / US $ 4 / 3 Euros, anywhere in the world.
