Default Renaissance John Dowland tune

Lady Hunsdon's Alman, written about 1600. Great as a warm up, stretches the left hand, theres a tricky bit in the middle which tests left finger independance and played fast is a good workout for the right fingers too.

And a cracking tune to boot.
One of my faves!!

Good job. Sounds like a fun tune. I suggest much less reverb on a tune like this though - keep it crisp and clean.

Thanks a lot.

So some like the "church" type sound, and others would prefer less reverb.

Hmm. Decisions.
