I'm happy to report that the www.johndowland.co.uk site is taking shape
nicely. The intention is to have a home for the complete recordings of
Dowland for free download, plus essays, videos, etc.

Today I have added:

1. David Taylor's dissertation on the Dowland canon - should stimulate
discussion!
2. David Taylor's video performance of the Frog Galliard
3. Martin Shepherd's essay of Ornamentation in Dowland's solo lute pieces -
a very useful contribution which I hope all Dowland performers will read. It
also contains two mp3 performances by Martin on a gut-strung 7c he made
himself. Luthier, performer, academic - is there any end to the man's
talents?!

There have been other updates since the first announcement, and I have had
promises from other performers of soundfiles and essays, so please have a
look, add it to your 'Favourites' and return every now and then to check the
Updates page. Please report any errors to me.
