Easy Pieces from Shakespeare's Time

Under the title "Easy pieces from Shakespeare's time" the present collection includes compositions from an epoch in which the lute played a predominant role in the instrumentarium of English music. A particular characteristic of musical practices of the time was the freedom which prevailed with regard to choice of instrument and also with regard to setting. Through the pieces in this collection the player, from the outset will be made familiar with the most diverse interpretation techniques, such as ornamentation, diminution song settings for Jute alone, etc.
