Dear lute friends,
The Austrian National Library owns a baroque lute manuscript
hand-written by the composer Johann Gotthard Peyer. From 1672 to 1678
Johann Gotthard Peyer was chaplain of the Imperial Court's orchestra in
Vienna/Austria. According to records his annual salary was 200 Gulden.
His baroque lute tabulature is attributed to Leopold I (1640 - 1705),
Holy Roman Emperor, King of Hungary and King of Bohemia as we can read
from the title page in Latin language "Lesus testudine tenoris gallici
teutonico laboretextus. Quem: Augustissimo ac Inuictissimo Romanorum
Imperatori Leopoldo :I: Hungariae Boehmiaeque Regi, Archidci Austrae
ec.ec. Apillini ac Domino suo Clementissimo. In submississimae
Deuotiotionis argumentum. Concinnauit ac humillime dedicauit Infumus
Vasalus. Joannes Gotthardus Peyer: SS: Thlgae sac: Canonumque
candidatus Presbyter".
From this inscription it is clear that Peyer presented his music in
person to Leopold I.
As good as possible in my study room I recorded first time the
Allemande, the Sarabande and the Caprize in d-minor from the
manuscript.
