  • I can't get why folks are so down on a someone who is a legendary musician and performer in his own lifetime.

    Sting took up the lute, an instrument he so clearly loves and has an affinity for, and brings it back to the masses.

    It's about the heart he shows in his performances, not the technical masturbation of so many other performers.

    How would this have sounded in Dowland's time? As good as this, I suspect.

    Lay off the man and give credit where it's due.

  • Sting is well aware of his vocal limitations when it comes to polyphony. He is simply approaching this music with humility and respect, thereby hoping to expand the introduction of this art of song to the public. His fame will act as a conduit for those legitimately interested in learning the lute and/or song.

  • Great performing ... Amazing lute player Master Karamazov!!

  • Thanks!

  • big respect , master Sting & master Edin!....

  • WayoftheSun has it pegged! As I posted elsewhere, this music was not meant for the sterile lands of academic study, it was meant to be enjoyed.

    Bravo to Sting for daring to dare. He has expanded his own horizons and by doing so, invited us to do so as well.

  • Is it enyone knows wher Edin come from???

  • I am so glad someone brought this music back. The people who would have performed this music would have been street performers,and they would have sounded very much like this. Its a wonderful thing that sting has done this.

  • I think Sting's venture into Renaissance lute-land was the worst move of his career. I've only heard a bit of his stuff w/ orchestra, but bet it's a good deal better.

  • GREAT workzzz1 Valiant succesful effort BRAVO

  • If it ain't like this when you die, then it's all fake.

  • Music is free for all to enjoy - like any art.

    This is quite personal & lovely, period.
