Description

Sleep, Dreams and Awakenings

Sleep, Dreams and Awakenings explores, through the medium of Elizabethan lute songs and solos, various aspects of sleep: plaints of lovers who long to rest their “weary weeping eyes,” frolics of suitors stealing a kiss from a (possibly) sleeping lover, and blissful lullabies to soothe even the most careworn soul.

Barbara Hollinshead, mezzo-soprano
Howard Bass, lutes
