The lute song was a generic form of music in the late Renaissance and very early Baroque eras. A singer usually accompanied himself on the lute, though lute songs may also often have been performed by a singer and a separate lutenist. The lute song flourished in England during the Elizabethan era. Songs were also performed in plays and dramas through court performances and in London’s street theater scene. Tone Painting (also Word Painting) is the musical technique of writing music that reflects the literal meaning of a song.
