Today’s column “Baroque Mondays: At the Court of the Capish King” takes us to England in the second half of the sixteenth century, to the ducal court of the Howards. Francis Cutting (ca. 1550–1596) is one of the earliest known composers of lute music whose name has been preserved, and his compositions have been preserved in A New Booke of Tabliture (1596) by William Barley. Let’s listen to them, then, played by Domenico Cerasani for Brilliant Classics.
