Dear Sean
Don`t worry, Don Quijote de la Mancha couldn't hear a difference
either, back in 1615. When he listened to Sanson Carrasco playing in a
forest he told Sancho:
Pero escucha, que a lo que parece templando esta vn laud, o viguela, y
segun escupe, y se desembaraça el pecho, deue prepararse para cantar
algo.
Best.
Antonio
If we cannot hear the differences between the two instruments from a
recorded performance, what conclusions should we draw? Is the
difference more apparent when we are in the same room? Should we
suspect they have been mixed (deliberately? inadvertently?) to make
them more similar?
