A Question, An Answer - Baroque Meditations on Life and Death (compositions by Tobias Hume, played by Stefano Zanobini on the viola d'amore)

https://open.spotify.com/album/4AfnvV6htZlnl7WVB2wmYv

Stumbled across this one a few months ago when looking for music for viola da gamba (which this is not), and last week listened to it a lot. Something about the simplicity, playfulness, and contrast of professional soldier/innovative composer historical fact appeals to me.
