Philip Rosseter - No grave for woe | Dowland's Foundry

No grave for woe by Philip Rosseter (1568-1623) A Book of Ayres, No. 3 Dowland's Foundry: Daniel Thomson - tenor (‪@DanielThomsonTenor‬) Sam Brown - lute (‪@Vivace214‬) Recording: Tom Perkins Recorded at Craxton Studios with thanks to Jane Craxton Text by Anonymous No grave for woe, yet earth my watery tears devours Sighs want air, and burnt desires kind pity showers Stars hold their fatal course, my joys preventing The earth, the sea, the air, the fire, the heav'ns vow my tormenting. Yet still I live and waste my weary days in groans And with woeful tunes adorn despairing moans Night still prepares a more displeasing morrow My day is night, my life is death, and all but sense of sorrow. #earlymusic #lutesong #lute #historicalperformance #musichistory #elizabethanmusic #elizabethan #renaissance #renaissancemusic #renaissancehistory #rosseter #philiprosseter
