At the beginning of the 17th Century, John Dowland returned to the Court of Christian IV of Denmark, bringing with him an Irish harpist and a dancing master. World renowned for its musical accomplishments, Copenhagen was a lodestone for composers and virtuosi across Europe.
Dowland’s Denmark introduces the music of this grand court encountered through the British and Irish musicians, the experience of being a travelling musician and the longing for the sounds of home.
