4.0
This book contains excellent guitar transcriptions for some of Dowland's most famous pieces (including "Come, heavy Sleep" and "Flow my tears"), including complete lyrics as well as notation for voice, guitar, and lute (using idiomatic lute notation).
While some of the pieces are presented at typical guitar pitch, most of them make use of a capo at the third fret to allow voice and guitar to sound in the same key. The author provides a helpful introduction and technical notes on his approach to the guitar transcription.
For a guitarist looking to explore Dowland's repertoire, this volume is the ideal place to start.
