About Time Stands Still: Drake and Dowland
Two acclaimed English singer-songwriters from across the ages meet in this contemplative recital for voice and guitar. The timeless beauty of Renaissance songs by John Dowland meet their twentieth-century counterpart in the songs of Nick Drake. Drake’s legacy ‘throbs with an aching beauty’ (Rolling Stone) – a quote which could easily be applied to John Dowland, who wrote some 400 years earlier. A peaceful way to end another special day at the Three Choirs Festival.
