Ferrabosco’s Lessons for 1, 2 & 3 Viols were written for Henry Wriothesley, 3rd Earl of Southampton and a hugely colourful figure at the beating heart of the early 17th-century English court. Here recorded on period instruments with gut strings, Richard Boothby’s exposition fully captures this remarkable music’s depth, intimacy and quiet brilliance.
