This is true beauty. Angela's pure, beautiful voice and the gorgeous lute playing.
I'm obsessed with this song and I've listened to soooo many arrangements and performances - this is hands down the most impressive one I've ever listened to. Bravo to you both!
I know this marvelous song by heart and heard dozens of performances, but this is so deeply touching it brings tears to my eyes (as it never did!) and it still does, even listening for the third time in a row. Yes, it's that moving. So beautifully done, with intimacy and care coming across to us in the music and even in the video. How would I not thank you after what I was offered this last few minutes? This made the world better, and without a bang. Love from Portugal.
I have always been a great lover of Dowland, especially his vocal pieces. The quality of this vocalist’s voice is striking and I am not sure exactly why. It is a modern woman’s quality of voice applied to early music which provides an interpretation that transcends time (I really don’t know how else to put it). The lute is perfectly balanced to give a devastatingly beautiful accompaniment. This gives me ideas about how to approach my own playing as a cellist.

I agree. Custer LaRue took a similar approach with the Baltimore Consort in this recording: v=igqDhKmROZg

The typical "plummy" operatic (back-of-the-throat") vocal timbre and constant wide vibrato listeners have to contend with in all classical genres probably didn't become widely used by classical singers until around the 1820s. Thank goodness there are at least a few singers who are able to sing early music with such a direct, forthright manner of voice production.
I listened this song so many times, I really got fed up with it. But Angela has such a subtle warm timbre and unpretentious way to perform that it is a real pleasure. Thats why I like the sopranos in the Monteverdi Choir so much.
Great this is real music. Glad there are young people performing that understand this. No thanks to autotune and blip blop music
An amazing vocal technique with repetitions with ornamentation Top-notch!
J'adore Lachrimae, "flow my tears" avec cette voix... J'en ai la chair de poule, juste magnifique
C'est toujours aussi merveilleux de vous entendre, quelle belle voix !
This one is my favourite rendition of the ones I have so far heard (many)! Others sound relatively deep that make the lyrics go incomprehensible, but this performance stays natural and easy to pick up the words. Somehow Angela has more clarity than others :)
Very beautiful. I can listen to this almost forever
Quelle voix d'ange!
So glad I discovered you. Your voice and style are superb. And I have always liked John Dowland's lute music.
Truly wonderful version. I play it over and over.

Transcendent singing.
Superb. I love your voice.
Angela nomine, angelica voce.

Flow My Tears, the Policeman Said
Sumptuous
Soaring.
🥺
Jaskier (Buttercup) is doing his job alright, he "knows all the chords"... 🙂
I having hard time hearing the lute well, its bit low in volume as well, other then that it sounds great, and performance of you both is on spot. I would suggest bit better mic'ing next time. :) Kind regards.
I think I like this version better than Emma Kirkby's. It's so clear and smooth. Very melodic.
This particular song is full of eroticism
not bad
Dowland? *click*
I decided not to listen to any other version.
no trates de mejorar lo perfecto. no me gusta
Too young to understand what they're singing/playing. I'm not holding it against them. Lovely pair.
Beautiful
