Book excerpt: Ten Songs by English Renaissance composer-lutenist-singer John Dowland, arranged for voice and classical guitar (in standard notation and tablature). Includes: Away with These Self-Loving Lads, Come Again Sweet Love, Come Heavy Sleep, Dear If You Change, Flow My Tears, Go Crystal Tears, If My Complaints, The Lowest Trees Have Tops, Weep You No More, Who Ever Thinks or Hopes. Note: These arrangements have been transposed down from the original keys, and, as such, they are most suitable for soloists with an alto or bass (8vb) range. For sopranos and tenors (8vb), guitarist uses capo to raise pitch a few steps to singer's desired key.
