Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

The times of William Shakespeare offered much more than great theatre. Those were years when music flourished, a time of saucy street ballads, of melancholy lute-songs and madrigals. Great artists of the early music scene convey listeners into this seemingly distant world and bring it to life.

Title from web page.

Performed by The Hilliard Ensemble, The Musicians of Swanne Alley and various other performers.

The consort consists of violin, flute or recorder, lute, bass-viol, cittern and pandora.
