Suddenly i think of Sting singing Dowland, a recent hit.

he sounds like the man-in-the-street doing it, which makes him sound very allied to folk-singing.

Saw prog over my shopulder from comp. Was surprised when she said what linked the music from the 11th to the 18th cventuries was the words, and loved seeing everyone singing Bach in day clothes, jeans etc. Lovely.
