Our Take

PADMOREKENNYOGDEN's album "Dowland: Lute Songs/Britten: Nocturnal" is a delightful juxtaposition of old and new, bringing together the haunting melodies of John Dowland with the modern interpretations of Benjamin Britten.

The album opens with Dowland's "Come Again, Sweet Love Doth Now Invite," a beautiful and evocative piece that showcases the virtuosity of both Padmore's vocals and Ogden's lute playing. Their chemistry is undeniable, as they effortlessly weave in and out of each other's melodies, creating a mesmerizing tapestry of sound.

As the album progresses, we are treated to Britten's "Nocturnal after John Dowland," a reimagining of Dowland's music through the lens of 20th-century composition. The result is a striking blend of old and new, with Ogden's intricate lute work providing the perfect backdrop for Padmore's haunting vocals.

Standout tracks include "Flow My Tears" and "Come, Heavy Sleep," where Padmore's emotive delivery shines through, capturing the essence of Dowland's melancholic poetry. The dynamic interplay between voice and lute is truly captivating, drawing the listener in with each passing note.

In conclusion, "Dowland: Lute Songs/Britten: Nocturnal" is a masterful collaboration between Padmore and Ogden, showcasing their immense talent and deep understanding of this timeless music. This album is a must-listen for fans of early music and contemporary interpretation alike.
