John Dowland Sting's eighth studio album, 'Songs From The Labyrinth', features a collaboration with Bosnian lutenist Edin Karamazov. Together, they explore the works of John Dowland, a composer and lutenist from the 16th/17th century.
The album comprises 23 compositions and was first released in October 2006. What particularly fascinates Sting about this musical endeavor is the precise compositional style and the thoughtful use of notes and effects characteristic of Dowland's Renaissance music.
