About This Item
Night falls and Mr. Dowland cannot sleep and seeks in his faithful orpharion. This, however, is no ordinary night Orpheus and Arion inhabit the dark reaches of his instrument and awake in an instant as Dowland touches the silver strings with his goldsmith's fingers. They take him on a powerful dreamlike journey, a visionary reverie that is full of surprises and avant-garde soundscapes. The music of the 1600s is gradually transformed into unexpected worlds before Dowland finally sinks into deep sleep. Album Tracks 1. Praeludium (Improvisation) 2. Come, Ye Heavy States of Night 3.
