Other Lute Tracks

Apart from the lute tracks on Tabernakel there are very few examples of Akkerman playing the lute that are generally available. The only ones are

With Focus:
1. Elspeth of Nottingham* (Focus 3) with flute and some percussion
2. Delitae Musicae (Hamburger Concerto) with recorder
Recordings are also available of Akkerman doing Britannia as an encore at the Focus at the Rainbow gig

Solo (Profile)
1. Kemp's Jig
2. Minstrel/Farmer's dance*

(* Both Akkerman's own compositions)

We might add that on the acoustic album Passion, there are three lute tracks played on acoustic guitar:

1. Countess of Pembrooks Paradise (Holborne/Akkerman)
2. Muy Linda (Holborne/Akkerman)
3. The knight of the lute (Unknown/Akkerman)
