Thanks for the info! Is the book from Ian Spink still availlable? I only
find used ones...
I wouldn't know. I found mine 18 years ago, new, in 'De Slegte', the Dutch
bookshop that stocks what we call shop daughters: remains from normal shops
and publishers that are sold cheaply as the profit for the production of the
first print has been made. It's cheaper for the publishers to sell these
under normal price and to make room in their warehouses for new books than
to keep these in stock. But a decent library should have it for you. The
Musica Britannica can also be found in any decent library. These volumes are
rather expensive: something like 130 euros I think.
David - finds his own cds as shop daughters occasionally ;-)

There's a nice little booklet by Ian Spink on the repertoire you're
interested in. It's called 'English Song, Dowland to Purcell' (Batsford,
London 1974). And check out the MB series part XXXIII: English Songs
1625-1660 (edited by the same Ian Spink) for a taste of what happenend
between the lute songs of Dowland and the continuo songs of Purcell.
