Those of you interested in late 18th century Baroque lute + violin/viola
may be interested in transcriptions of Rust sonatas I made that are now
available for viewing:
I. Sonata in C Major for lute and viola (Rust 21). I worked with
Jean-Daniel Forget to see if we could get a playable tablature version
of the lute part. The original MS is in grand-staff notation. I am
interested in performers' feedback, particularly because of arpeggios on
diapasons. Jean-Daniel thinks it is very feasible, I am still a bit
uneasy with those. I don't think there is another tablature
transcription of that sonata but perhaps there is ...
The link to that is: http://fandango.musickshandmade.com/projects/view/5
. You will need a login to view that project. It is free and it can put
you on the world map of lutenists, which is a fun little app.
II. and III. I provided transcriptions, also in collaboration with
Jean-Daniel, of the sonatas I (G) and II (Dm) for lute and violin based
on the violin parts from the Berlin Staatsbibliothek and the tablature
part from the Krakow 40150 MS.
The link to those is: http://fandango.musickshandmade.com/projects/view/7.
Finally, I am currently still working on a transcription of the H-dur
sonata -- that is a headache... The lute part is also in grand-staff
notation and not at all obvious due to various problems. It is one of
the "revised and improved" Rust sonatas... I found only one edition of
that H-Dur sonata ... adapted for modern guitar. Sad, no?
There is a comments field where you can leave your impressions,
corrections, etc. if you chose to do so.
