Re: [lace] Music and Lace
For me it's not the lace that the people wear but the fact that lace is in the way that it is made musical. For sometime I've thought that the scoring for music is very much like our prickings. And the way that I manipulate the bobbins is for me similar to playing any stringed instrument or even the piano.

Lace in the opera? Lace on conductors or composers? Was lace important when people listened to music? How was lace connected to music? Romantic? Status? What about the 19th century? 20th century? Who wore lace in connection to music? Hope to hear from you. :-) Nathalie - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here.

Re: [lace] Music and Lace
Dear Friends, I understand that David wears lace when he conducts - hopefully he'll see this and write about it for you! I wouldn't dream of conducting without it!! BUT even more relevant than that is the fact that I also wouldn't dream of making lace without music of some sort playing. Many years ago now Jana Nicol of Lansing, Michigan (former Arachnid still on Facebook) sent me a CD of some local group playing the most beautiful music to make lace by. I could dig it out - but I do know that it's mainly flue and zither.

Re: [lace] Music and Lace
Nathalie, Yes, although this may not be what you had in mind: the connection I see between [bobbin] lace and music is the interweaving of threads/musical lines to make something ornate, especially in the music of J.S.Bach, Vivaldi, Albinoni, Gabrielli, etc., or the great pieces of polyphony such as by Thomas Tallis. Not sure what to make of other kinds of lace or other kinds of music...
