Since taking up the lute in 1978, Ronn has made his mark in music as the founder of Ayreheart, a founding member of the Baltimore Consort, touring 49 of the 50 United States, Canada, England, Scotland, Netherlands, Germany and Austria, and as a guest artist with Apollo’s Fire, The Bach Sinfonia, The Catacoustic Consort, The Folger Consort, Houston Grand Opera, The Oregon Symphony, The Portland Baroque Orchestra, and The Indianapolis Baroque Orchestra. Born in West Virginia, Ronn grew up in Maryland. At thirteen, upon hearing “Wipeout” by the Surfaris, he fell madly in love with music and The Celtic Lute taught himself to play on a “cranky sixteen-dollar steel string guitar.” Released in 2018, Ronn's newest solo Ronn kept at it, playing blues and rock music on the electric guitar while album features all-new arrangements of traditional Irish and Scottish folk music studying classical guitar. He graduated with honors from Shenandoah Conservatory and continued guitar studies at Peabody Conservatory before turning his full attention and energy to the lute in 1978. McFarlane was a faculty member of the Peabody Conservatory from Solo Discography 1984 to 1995, teaching lute and lute-related subjects.

  • Baltimore Consort at Holy Trinity, Akron: 15 Minutes with Mary Anne Ballard by Daniel Hathaway
    Baltimore Consort at Holy Trinity, Akron: 15 minutes with Mary Anne Ballard by Daniel Hathaway When the Baltimore Consort presents their program “Adew Dundee: Early and Traditional Music of Scotland” at Akron’s Holy Trinity Lutheran Church on Sunday, October 28 at 4:00 pm, the ensemble will be revisiting its roots. As violist da gamba Mary Anne Ballard said in a telephone conversation, “Our first recording was of that repertoire. We’ve always been in love with the tunes of Scotland.” Before that, the Consort was inaugurated by Roger Harmon, who taught guitar at the Peabody Conservatory. “He played a lot of lute music on guitar, and wanted to find ensemble music that involved the lute,” Ballard said. “He found Thomas Morley’s Consort Lessons of 1599, which was written for treble viol, flute or recorder, lute, ​ cittern, pandora, and bass gamba, and formed a similar ensemble in 1979. It’s a wonderful sound to have a melody floating over plucked instruments that underpin the tune with rhythmic chords or running diminutions.” Beyond the Morley collection, the written repertoire from the turn of the 17th century wasn’t huge. “There are only four main sources from around 1600,” Ballard said, “and we used those as a template for our own arrangements of popular songs and dances — the kind of tunes mentioned in Shakespeare’s plays that most people would have known.” Thus the genesis of “Adew Dundee,” a group effort for which Ballard served as coordinator. “We started playing and arranging Scottish music, which was very popular among the English, who loved its pentatonic scales.

    sono luminus 4/11/16, 11:39 AM ShareThis Positive Feedback ISSUE 69 september/october 2013 Sono Luminus - Four New Blu-Ray/Redbook CDs by Roger S. Gordon Many music lovers will remember Dorian Recordings which was a record label located in Troy, New York. From its inception in 1988 to its demise in the early 2000s, Dorian issued almost 600 CDs. Dorian was most famous for their early music CDs, though they also issued CDs of organ music (Jean Guillou), symphonies (Mahler's 4th), and traditional music for lute and other early music instruments. The music on these Dorian CDs, while not to everyone's taste, was always brilliantly performed. The sound quality of the Dorian CDs rivaled the best sounding CDs being sold at the time. I bought a number of the Dorian CDs and some of them are still favorites today; e.g. Ronn McFarlane's The Scottish Lute and the Baltimore Consort's On the Banks of the Helicon. In 2005, Sono Luminus bought the Dorian catalog and has reissued some of the Dorian and Dorian Discovery catalog. Sono Luminus had been founded in 1995 to develop improved methods of digital recording. While having made many recording over the intervening years, Sono Luminus had not issued any recordings on their own label. That changed with the 2005 acquisition of Dorian. After the purchase of Dorian, Sono Luminus began issuing their own releases, with the first two under the "Dorian" moniker. This was followed by 47 releases as a combined "Dorian - Sono Luminus" label plus some re-mastered box sets of older Dorian titles.
