Dowland Project – Romaria

John Potter, tenor
John Surman, saxophone, clarinet bass, flute dolce
Milos Valent, violin and viola
Jacob Heringman, lute and guitar

The Dowland Project was  born out of the attempt to rediscover the essence of Renaissance song, starting from the perception that a modern-day performer has of a repertoire from the distant past.
The idea came to tenor John Potter and Manfred Eicher of ECM Records, and led to the combination of jazz musicians and  Renaissance-era specialists in performing compositions by John Dowland. This study led to the CD John Dowland: In Darkness Let MeDwell, released in 1999. Romaria, released in January 2008, is the third CD from the  DowlandProject. It features chansons and minnelieder, Portuguese folk and a musical experiment on the movements of masses by composers from the Franco-Flemish area of the 15th century.
