Lute Song Summer Workshop

Melbourne International Lute Festival is proud to present an annex event in 2027.

A fabulous all day Lute Song Summer Workshop. Open to all budding lute players and singers alike. A wonderful opportunity to work with Daniel Thomson, tenor and Sami Brown, lute from the UK's premier lute song ensemble, Dowland's Foundry. The day features group playing and singing with HIP at its core and culminates in an afternoon recital - Summer Ayre - Works by Dowland, Shakespeare, Campion, Morley - and Simon & Garfunkel - along with the Australian premiere of UK composer Barry Mills’ beautiful work A Contemplation Upon Flowers.
