Thanks, I'd forgotten that. Can you help us out by telling us
something about which is which? I'm thinking mostly of the printed
book, and the music in the Barbe MS - and it would be interesting to
know if they are by different composers. Isn't there also guitar music,
or is that yet another Gallot?

Dear baroque lutenists,
after having check-played through quite a few pieces by Jacques
Gallot, I've come to the conclusion (that means this is my subjective
opininion, of
course!) that Jacques really is one of the great lute composers - in
the level of F. da Milano, Dowland, E. Gaultier and such). And what
especially came to mind, is that J. Gallot in a way tastes same as
Francesco da Milano
- about 150 years later: very economic writing, actually in extrem,
very clever ideas of melody and harmony, extremely very well written
to the instrument, its tuning, and to the fingers of both hands of the
player. Not to speak of the enjoyment to the ears and understanding.
So Jacques is thus taken to my heaven of lute geniuses! :-)
Recommended!
All the best,
Arto
