David McGuinness and Concerto Caledonia voyage once more into musical history, and this time the object of their exploration is Tobias Hume, about whose life we know very little. This recording draws on the two books of music Hume published in his lifetime, and ranges from capricious fragments of tunes that celebrate the simple joy of playing the viol, to potent moments of substantial emotional depth. Concerto Caledonia is Scotland's foremost early music group, bringing to life the classical and traditional music of the nation's history. This is their fifth recording on Delphian.
