Gigue and Double de la Gigue - Toyohiko Satoh

Toyohiko Satoh, Japanese by birth but now a resident of the Hague, Netherlands, is one of the best known of presently performing "authentic" lutenists - those who have studied and adopted historical concepts, instruments and techniques. Mr. Satoh studied guitar, cello and musicology, and in 1966 came to study lute with Eugen Domboix at the Schola Cantorum in Basel, Switzerland. Since 1970, when he made the first solo baroque lute album for Philips, he has recorded extensively for Philips, Telefunken, EMI, Harlekijn and other companies.
