In a recent Mudcat auction Mudlark offered An Elizabethan Song Book and alanww won the final bid but MMario was also bidding.

As I said in the Auction thread: "I have had this book for about 30 years and I love it. Some of the song melodies are so beautiful yet so simple.   I bought it when I was learning the flute and have had many happy hours playing songs throughout the book."

MMario, you asked about finding the Midis of the music. You can search for music by Thomas Campion, e.g. Never Weatherbeaten Sail, Thrice Toss These Oaken Ashes, Think'st Thou to Seduce Me etc. I really like his tunes.

Early Music on Midi

My favourite song in the book is called All Lookes Be Pale

The John Dowland tunes are very good too.

Also if you do a search on Google.com for "An Elizabethan Song Book" there are quite a few secondhand copies available to buy.
