Drop not, mine eyes is a recital of English lute songs that soaks up the zeitgeist of the past couple of years to create a programme full of melancholic works by Dowland, Campion, Danyel, Purcell and others. If the ever-popular Dowland was readily prone to sadness, the polymath Thomas Campion favoured a more sober style. Thomas Ford displays his more profane side. When it comes to melancholy, John Danyel's Grief, keep within and Drop not, mine eyes are every bit as good as Dowland.
