Hello list! I would be interested how you see the things with the length of notes that (can) last longer than the rhythmic value in tabluature in transcription into "modern" 5-line system. Some traiteses do have notes on special signes that tell to let a string sing longer than the rhythmic value says (if no other fret in the string has to be used), but in the most pieces after those explanations they are no more used. Maybe because "everyone" knows at what grade of dissonance to stop a string floating. Who really does stop strings if a _faint_ sound from a string makes a dissonance? For the transcription you have to take a choice how you do it, so I wanted to ask you how you do it. What traiteases explain that more detailed?
Kind regards, Hermann To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html
