Description

 William Lawes. Salisbury born. Brother to the more famous Henry and a court musician to Charles I.   Shot in a battle at Rowton Heath, near Chester on 24 September 1645 in the English Civil War despite being put in a post by the King that would "keep him safe". This is part of a beautiful three movement suite. Arranged for guitar by the late Julian Bream as a duo for two guitars.. Wendy Partridge - a  fine guitarist-  and I worked together for about 10 years between about 1997 and 2007. We recorded this on electro acoustic guitars I'm not sure why
