Ed, Yes, I forgot the Valderrabano intabulations. He also intabulated a movement from Morales's Missa de beata virgine. I should say from_one_of Marles's. He also wrote two. I've wondered if you couldn't pull a Paston and use some of the intaulations for an accompanied song. Those are some of the most beautiful melodies ever conceived, and I wonder what it would be like to use the three lower parts onlute and sing the top line. (That's what Paston did with Byrd.)
I and others are waiting for the debut of The First Vihuela Quartet. (What was that grup that calledthemselves "The First <something or other>"? Howard would know.<g> Art. ----- Original Message ----- From: Edward Martin To: Arthur Ness ; Lute Net Sent: Monday, August 01, 2005 7:48 AM Subject: Re: Fw: Byrd Excellent note, Art!
