As an exercise of sorts, I used the CPDL material at http://www1.cpdl.org/wiki/index.php/The_Whole_Booke_of_Psalmes_(Thomas_Este) and merged the vocal parts for the Dowland pieces available there to create lute parts. If you are interested, you can check this link: http://fandango.musickshandma

I thought it was Italian! I was under the impression that some artists Latinized/Italianized their names (Giovanni Coperario comes to mind)—why not honorifics? Where did he get his degree, by the way? Leonard On 4/23/17, 12:46 PM, "Rainer" wrote: >On 23.04.2017 14:29, Leonard Williams wrote:

Probably this is the Psalm setting, that was published in "The whole book of Psalmes" by Thomas Ravenscroft. It should be online on imslp.org (p. 172, 194 in the pdf). Here it is set in F Major. The melody is a familiar tune, that is still sung in German Protestant services. Best regards Mar
