“Semper Dowland, semper dolens” is the self-dedication that opens Lachrimae or Seaven Teares, a collection of dances composed by the English lutenist John Dowland (1563-1626). The Concordia Viol Consort’s selection of pieces begins with the moving pavan Lachrimae Antiquae, which leads to the lively galliard The Earle of Essex and the gentle allemande Mistresse Nichols.
