Sting on the lute

The BBC website has some video clips of Sting playing the lute, including this one where the former Police frontman talks a bit about the history of the lute and attempts to play a bit of John Dowland!

There's also a video of him performing a very mellow and evocative version of 'Message in a bottle' as well as a 17th century motet.

Love it!
