Elizabeth Pallett, Lutenist: Bringing the Renaissance to life!

Conversations with Musicians, with Leah Roseman by Leah Roseman

Episode notes


Elizabeth Pallett is a wonderful British lute player.  Her love of Renaissance music and history is infectious and she has generously provided this episode with several of her beautifully produced YouTube videos; her channel Luteweb is linked below, as well as her duo Amarylli with soprano Hannah Grove. We talk about the history of the evolution of plucked instruments in Europe, and many fascinating historical figures including Dowland and Shakespeare. Liz  plays various lutes and plucked instruments and teaches at the Birmingham Conservatoire as well as  online with students worldwide.
