The playing of many professional classical guitarists leaves me cold. Where they flawlessly execute a score, Bream has spaciously conceived the music using something it seems is in short supply- a disciplined imagination. Each note, instead of sounding like part of an automatic process, sounds conceived and executed deliberately. Bream attended conservatory, where he was told not to bring his "gypsy instrument". He had to practice in the boiler room. I have always fancied one could hear the kind of strength of character implied by that anecdote in his playing.
I have never heard any other lutenist even come close to the crispness, definition and especially the variations of tone and attack Bream employs.
A minor caveat- Dowland's four part ayres come off pretty weak on this recording. It was made in the early 60's, I believe, and for some reason performers of early music back then thought that a quavery, mashed-potatoes-in-your mouth approach was what was called for. Buy this anyway, for the 14 great Dowland tracks & the Bach (played on guitar not lute).
