Beautiful performance. I notice that he keeps his right hand quite high -- right over the rose -- much of the time.

I loved this piece from Biber ever since I discovered the composer. So glad to hear it transcribed for lute. Completely another atmosphere. Violin can be quite virtuosic and "showy" in this piece at times, which is nice of course but Lute makes it contemplative and way more intimate.

Thank you for having given me the chance to hear it on harpsichord.

One of the most lovely and elegant lute suites of the baroque period. Nigel North's playing is superb.

I can hear the birds sing! Wonderful!

Lovely rendition: sweet, clear, humble declamation of the text. Thank you.

brilliant and elegant performance. the melody at 30 seconds is stirring. great work sir

wonderful!

Back in the early Seventies, when I was still active in the Society for Creative Anachronism, I used to sing this as a duet with my girlfriend, who sang contralto -- and took the lower part. I'm a little shocked that I can still sing it in the same key as Ms. Stoppelelenburg uses here!

I first heard Gothic Voices sing this. You all did a splendid job. Bravo! 👏👏

Excellent! I only wish there was more!

Fantastic!

Wonderful and the lute notation is appreciated.

Dear Byron Colby: I don't know who you are and I live too far from Illinois to attend any concerts...but this is wonderful stuff also the video is great. From Prague I will say "dekuju moc" (= thanks a lot) and best regards..

Is it just me or the Canaries (10:28) sound a little jazzy? Great performance !

No comments? I think everyone is speechless. Beautiful playing, as ever, from Nigel. And Bittner wrote some of the best 11c music. What's not to like? Nicely edited video too.

Lovely interpretation !

What a great lutenist !

Beatiful performance! :)

Do you have the score? Thank you!

just discovered Tromboncino (circuitously, via Dalza.) LOVE this music. beautiful performance here. thank you for posting.

This is great, the video too..thanks!

Charm itself...

Thanks so much for uploading these videos with Tablature. It's an invaluable resource! Being able to see Mr. North's interpretation is very helpful.

How anyone could dislike Nigel North's playing is completely beyond me.

Beautiful!

Perfection.

Really nice post of Nigel...appreciated the tablature added.

suena muy bello, uno de los mejores laudistas de todos los tiempos Nigel North

Thank you so much for this excellent performance, I was able to use it for a source in my music history paper!

I really feel like Nigel north is the best Lutenist in the world. His tone and the feeling he puts into the music is incredible.

Violoncello far out!

What stunning playing, I'm floored! Thanks for uploading.

Bellisimo! cheers from the Philippines.

un des plus beaux touchers sur le luth ! et quelle musicalité !

Wonderful and magic

Beautiful music performed beautifully on a beautiful instrument. Bravissimo Nigel North! Adding the tablature is the icing on the cake.
