Ronn McFarlane
GRAMMY-nominated lutenist, Ronn McFarlane strives to bring the lute - the most popular instrument of the Renaissance - into today’s musical mainstream and make it accessible to a wider audience. Ronn is a founding member of the Baltimore Consort, touring 49 of the 50 United States, Canada, England, Scotland, Netherlands, Germany and Austria. Originally a student of the guitar, he graduated with honors from Shenandoah Conservatory and continued his studies at Peabody Conservatory before turning his full attention and energy to the lute in 1978. His solo career repertoire blends new, original compositions as well as folk music and art music from Renaissance and Medieval England, Scotland, and Wales.
