当听到这首散发着淡淡忧伤丝丝甜蜜的爱情歌曲，如果不说，我都不会想到这可是400年前流传的歌曲，由此我不得不感叹人不论处在时空的哪个方位，感情深处都有相同之处；从此我也就喜欢上英国音乐家JohnDowland的歌曲。

约翰•道兰的音乐（一）
“不要焦虑，快乐一些。”这是我们最希望道兰能听到的话。如果他能听从我们的建议的话，那么世界上就会少一些优美而悲伤的音乐了。
尽管道兰性格忧郁，但是他所创作的大部分音乐却是令人感动，而非让人感到抑郁的。道兰当然不是局限于创作一些带有忧郁味道的音乐作品上。事实上，[

具有托马斯·塔利斯鲜明个人风格的两套《哀歌》作品中，作曲家运用了其所熟知的一切作曲技法。泰斯·乃顿为听众推荐哀歌作品最富有感染力的唱片录音。
两套耶利米哀歌配乐是托马斯·塔利斯创作于晚期的作品，显示出作曲家对盛行于十六世纪下半叶的复调音乐语汇的娴熟掌握。托马斯·塔利斯运用对比的织体结构勾勒出隐含于圣经旧约正文中弥漫的紧张[
