Dear list, Possibly because there was some lute playing even outside UK ;-) I would strongly recommend:
Vincenzo Capirola G. A. Casteliono Francesco Spinacino Attaingnant, Tres breve et familiere Introduction... Alessandro Piccinini ------Messaggio originale------ Da: Sean Smith Mittente:lute-...@cs.dartmouth.edu A:LuteList Oggetto: [LUTE] Facsimiles Inviato: 10 Ago 2010 03:18 Dear all, Though this arises coincidentally from the Passereau question, it's actually been brewing in my head for some time. For a lute student of between 1-3 years what would you suggest are the 5 most important facsimiles to own? I was going to say "have access to" but I feel that any serious player should be starting their own libraries by this time. I'll ask this from the point of view of a renaissance lutenist as well as the baroque players who will have their own lists. I'm not so interested in where they come from --I realize their availability comes and goes-- but from the student/player/historian aspect of learning the lute, its repertory and its place in history. Yes, I know, 5 books is mighty limiting but feel free to add a second 5 books if you need. As I see it every player has to start somewhere. Eventually I plan to tally the results and put a paragraph or 3 in an upcoming LSA Quarterly. And here. Thanks in advance; I look forward to your replies!
