| Added by magataganm, 27 Dec 2019 Jakub Polak (c. 1545 - c. 1605), also known as Jakub Reys (Reis, de Rais, de Reiz, de Restz, de Retz, du Retz)[1] and Jacques le Polonois, was a Polish lutenist and composer. He was notable for his service as court lutenist to Henry III of Poland and France.[2] Initially Polak served as one of the court musicians at Kraków, and after Henry III fled Poland, Polak joined him in Paris in 1574. He was an author of several lute compositions, most notably preludies, fantasies, dances and several chansons. During his lifetime he was renowned for his lute improvisations. The Lute was a much-revered instrument in Poland in those days. It was a general symbol of Music, and even Art as a whole. And the best lutenists stayed at the court of Polish Kings in Kraków.

Although originally composed for Lute, I created this interpretation of his "Early Baroque Love Songs" (a collection for Lute) for Oboe & Strings (2 Violins, Viola & Cello). | |||
