"Fred Jacobs's playing is exquisite, drawing out the full range and depth of the plucked sounds, conjuring up a vanished world of intimacy and grandeur."
(Nicholas Kenyon for The Guardian, January 2016)
"Dutch theorbist Fred Jacobs charms with consummate skill and subtle grace, drawing on a range of rhythmic and expressive devices that highlight the luxuriant French idiom. His instrument – by master luthier Michael Lowe – painstakingly recreates [...] its silk and satin tones sumptuous as the royal bed-chamber in which these works would lull Louis to exquisite sleep."
(Kate Bolton-Porciatti for BBC Music Magazine, August 2016)
