Dear baroque lutenists,
in the ms. Barbe there is an interesting piece "Le Perier de Mouton" (p.
224-225). Does anyone have some information of that piece? Do you think
it is a (strange) Chaconne? What could be the reference "Le Perier"?
Some person or incident?
According to Peter's (wonderful) pages there is a concordance in ms.
CZ-Pu ms. II.Kk.80, p. 90. There the piece is called "Sarabande en
Rondeau de Mouton", but in Peter's Barbe page there is also a name "Le
Charmant Retour"... So, still more mysteries... Where does that name
come from?
And btw, does any kind soul happen to have the ms. CZ-Pu ms. II.Kk.80
(Praha, Národní knihovna CSR - Universitní knihovna) ... ;-) It would
be very interesting to compare the versions...
All the best,
Arto
