MICHAEL MANDEREN

Michael Manderen

The Sounds of the Lute...

Afloating, expressive spritley sound which takes us to the days of Kings and Queens, folklore, Sherwood Forest, and Camelot. 

Michael Manderen brings us the authentic stringed lute in the musical styles of the medieval, renaissance, and baroque period.

Capture the sounds of early music on lute. 
The debut album,"In The King's Entertainment", features a bevy of inspired arrangements. 
From traditional songs such as "Greensleeves" to "Galliard" pieces... a most noble entertainment indeed.
