Hi-I love those sharp keys. I was working on writing a suite in c#minor and got pretty far with it but then decided to transpose it to c minor, mostly because I don't like tuning the d# bass. Of course now I have to tune an a flat though...

That key actually seems to be easier to get better in tune than the ET compared to many of the "easier" keys! I am really quite surprised! If interested, see my [1]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JcGrgWCakxw&feature=youtu.be and also http://vimeo.com/35062443 It will be interesting to try more of this f#-minor! And also A-major seems to have an interesting character... Any experienced comments of the feel and touch of those 3 sharp + even more -pieces? :-) Best, Arto To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html -- References 1. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JcGrgWCakxw&feature=youtu.be
