Matthew McAllister plays Orlando Sleepeth (Poulton No.61) by John Dowland (1563-1626). This comes via his amazing YouTube channel where he’s recently been featuring a number of student level works. It’s great to hear professional players play right from my edition. Charming piece and great phrasing by McAllister, plus that lovely rhythmic change in this work.

Sheet Music & Lesson: Also see my lesson and the sheet music for this piece.

Check out more of my sheet music at my Spotlight on Werner Guitar Editions, where I’ll feature performances of my editions by great players.
