Online Lute Fest - Nigel North (Concert Only) Bor Online Lute Fest - Nigel North (Concert Only) Born in London, England, Nigel North has been Professor of Lute at the Early Music Institute, Indiana University, Bloomington (USA) since 1999. Previous positions include the Guildhall School of Music and Drama, London (1976-1996), Hochschule der Künste, Berlin (1993-1999) and the Royal Conservatory, Den Haag, (2006-2009). Nigel studied classical music playing the violin and guitar, and eventually discovering his real path in life—the lute, when he was 15. Basically self-taught on the lute, he has been playing and teaching for nearly 50 years. Recordings include a four CD boxed set Bach on the Lute (Linn Records), four CDs of the lute music of John Dowland (Naxos), and a new ongoing series of music by Sylvius Weiss (BGS) and Francesco da Milano (BGS). www.nigelnorth.com #lutesocietyofamerica #nigelnorth #baroquelute #baroquemusic #renaissancelute #usamusic #ukmusic #earlymusic
