‘Dowland – A Game of Mirrors’ is a sophisticated acoustic album merging modern jazz and English renaissance music. The French jazz guitarist and composer David Chevallier conceived this project based on the original melodies by John Dowland, and then created his own instrumental arrangements for guitar and theorbo, which give the well-known songs a completely new look & feel both musically and sonically.
This is a one-of-a-kind Dowland experience, inspiring and illuminative for jazz fans and early music lovers alike.
