Classical

Jakob Lindberg is one of the world's foremost lutenists, with a large catalog of recordings that have often brought to light obscure music. Also playing other members of the guitar family, he has directed Baroque operas from his instrument. Lindberg's recording career began in 1984 with the album Faire, Sweet & Cruell: Elizabethan Songs, recorded with soprano Christina Hogman. In his recitals, Lindberg sometimes uses a lute by Sixtus Rauwolf, one of the oldest lutes currently in use. In addition to solo recitals, Lindberg's activities have extended into lute consort music, often with his own Dowland Consort. He is especially well known for his comprehensive catalog of recordings, which number well over 100 and include the first recording of Dowland's complete solo lute music. Lindberg has often recorded Bach's comparatively neglected lute music. In 2024, Lindberg returned with the album Robert de Visée: Theorbo Solo.
