The Last of Old England by Jeni Melia Jeni Melia : The Last of Old England.
 Elizabethan lute and folk song.

Lutenist Chris Goodwin said that when he met Jeni Melia, he thought she had the most incredible voice he'd ever heard, and he decided then and there that he had to do a recording with her. We think you'll agree that the purity and tone of Melia's voice is something special, and her collaboration with Goodwin gives us some completely fresh interpretations of early music.
