Title: for Sting fans only
Product review: If you're one who enjoys the toneless rasp that is Sting's voice, you'll love this recording. For the rest of us, the miscast Sting spoils an otherwise praiseworthy performance of Dowland's excellent songs. Edin Karamazov on lute is masterly charm overshadowed, alas, by Sting. The recitation of Dowland's letters detracts from the music too and should have been in the liner notes, where the letters couldn't be so affected as they are on the audio tracks.
