Dear lutenists,
I already decided to come back to the Continental lute repertoire, but
couldn't yet... ;)
In many years I tried to understand the Scottish lute music, but could
not - it just looked like some aleatoric computer generated random
stuff. But for some reason or another I happened to take another look to
the Balcarres ms. about 1.5 moths ago, and I was hooked... I suppose and
accept that my playing probably is not acceptable at all by the really
hard core Scottish musicians, but anyhow to me this has been very
interesting and happy journey to the Scottish mentality - which by the
way doesn't seem to be so very far off from the Finnish type of
melancholy...
Today I tried the Tarphicken, mr. Beck's way:
