Thoren has a harp, plus some viols, and perhaps Orey and Norey have
recorder/flutes? Ben a bit since I read it, but winter is a-comin' in...

Caravaggio al frodo! Doesn't The Hobbit start out w/ a motley crew
(no um"laut"s) of dwarves having a party at Bilbo's house w/ lots of
lutes and things?
Looking at the Wiki article (thanks Ed!), one of the 3 versions of
this appears to be a 7c and the other two are 6c's --all doubled top
strings. Good news for Arto.

My favorite painting of all time... To my surprise, I've heard the
lute player referred to as a boy. Is that correct? I've always
fancied "her" as female... :-)

Dear collective wisdom,
is there any evidence of using double chanterelle on 6 course
lutes?
(If memory serves, there is at least one liuto attiorbato stringed
so.)
