(Semi) serious question. What music was composed for this instrument
outside Scotland? - Is it any good? (- the music from outside Scotland,
that is).
Second question - What did they call this instrument back in the day?
Specifically, was it ever called "The English Guitar"?

Subject: [LUTE] The English Guitar
I'm no fascist, so if you want to discuss the so-called English
Guitar,
I suggest you do so here, not in the thread of my video performance
(which everyone except Martyn seems to have seen). I only ever said
don't use my video thread to discuss the wider issues of the guittar.
My reason for creating a separate thread is that it makes it easier
for
me to avoid. The reason for avoiding the discussion is that there are
a
few regulars here who cannot discuss anything without killing the
subject for anyone who has a love for it.
So, what is an English Guitar?
