RIP Julian Bream.
As a teenager in Toronto, the very first records I took out of the
library were the Toronto Consort, who introduced me to Julian Bream's
music, and Woods So Wild. After that I signed out Lute Music from the
Royal Courts of Europe and Julian Bream Plays Dowland. And
True! You can't put Early Music into concert halls and call it
historical performance.
I once heard Jordi Savall and his orchestra (about 20 people or so) with
Corelli in a huge Symphony Hall.
It was nice, but it totally lacked the impact it would have had in a
more intimate setting.
And if it

Ron & Donna
