Hi all, I just returned from the 9th early music course in Gruyere, mainly instrument building along with some concerts. The instrument building course was held by Renzo Salvador and they build a beautiful (and wonderful sounding) renaissance harp.
I just attended the recitals of the weekend which has been great. The Ensemble Les Jardins de Courtoisie played renaissance songs with lute and harp - Anne Delafosse-Quentin has an angelic voice - unbelievable! I really hope they will record this programm. Pascale Boquet on lute and Angelique Mauillon on harp played the instruments. I'm really enthusiastic about their program. Today Pantagruel played their scottish program which has been broadcasted live by swiss radio. They rock! A very entertaining and musical improved performance. For those interested some fotos of the weekend (mainly of the nice surrounding of Gruyeres) can be found on http://lautenist.de/gruyeres/ -- Thomas Schall Doerflistrasse 2 CH-6078 Lungern +41 41 678 00 79 lauten...@lautenist.de -- To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html
