 Sure, everyone knows about the magnificence of magnatune, but you
 can't save those files, only listen to them in real time.

What you pay is what you get, I mean, you can _buy_ them, like a normal cd, 
as if _real_ people made those recordings, people who deserve to get paid 
for their work. I like it when people buy my cds, not just borrow, and I'm

No, no, you're getting it all wrong.

I never said you should not pay for downloading magnatune music.

What I'm saying, or rather asking, is:

Is there any podcasting out there on lute related matters? If not, I
believe there should be.

The whole idea about podcasting is to upload home-made stuff onto
the net, which others can then partake of, comment, learn from etc.

This does not have to become a discussion of what should be paid to
someone or other, bur rather that the lute field could embrace
podcasting as a medium to propagate lute matters.

Dear Martin,

The neck and the shape of the body would suggest IMHO it's not a theorbo but a 
german baroque lute. This would also suggest double courses for the basses. 
To be sure we would need the measures of the body.

I would opt for 2 single courses on the top, 5 doublecourses on the

people are chatting at a party, or eating. And there are many people who
would like to have music without paying musicians, because , as a friend
once told me ( he had refused to play) you know, waiters are to be paid
(--and there is no money left for musicians--)

Back to the original message: there are some pieces of mine (playing Weiss

Fw: Re: Antwort: Re: more about the old theorbo

2005-04-17 Thread Daniel F Heiman
Thomas, Martin, et al.

For the current state of the instrument, my interpretation was the same
as Thomas'.  However, the photographs are somewhat ambiguous.  If you
look at the bridge, the spacing seems to favor all the courses being
double, but if you look at the nut for the fingerboard strings, you see
what appears to be a groove for a single first course that is unoccupied
(and could not be used unless the top two strings are reversed on the
pegs).  

An accurate assessment would require additional photographs (close-ups of
the bridge and the nuts) or a look at the instrument in person, but it
does seem like it could be played as an 11-course in transitional or
d-minor tuning (top two courses single) with at most a redrilling of a
few holes in the bridge (they may be already present) and maybe one
additional groove in the fingerboard nut to space a single second course
to your liking.  The rake of the pegbox looks too shallow to allow for a
treble rider to be glued on to add a single first string in addition to
those already present.

Daniel Heiman

Pure speculation of course but, if only 6/7 fingered and 4 (doubled) bass 
courses, don't overlook that it cld conceivably be an arch-colachon: 18thC 
mandoras and colachons gathered additional bass courses, altho a 1720  
conversion date is probably too early fr a 10 course instrument. Whether such 
instruments actually existed must be open to question but 30 yrs ago we were 
ignorant of the 18thC m and c.

Two Accompaniment Questions

2005-04-17 Thread Eric Hansen

Cross-posted; please excuse duplication.

1. Can anyone recommend 17th-century songs for soprano or mezzo-sop. and 
11-course Baroque lute (d minor tuning) with the accompaniment in tablature? 
I'm not quite far enough along in this tuning to realize a bass just yet. 

2. Is there a source for Caccini's Amarilli mia bella with the bass line 
realized for theorbo, in tablature? I have played the realization by Dowland 
for lute, and can realize Caccini's original bass line on the theorbo, but the 
results of my attempt at the latter are thinnner sounding than I'd like. 

My thanks in advance to all,

 Roman, I believe Herbert was speaking of an actual historical organ, not to
 confuse this with the contents of your own organ.

I've dug this out of the kill-file to thank you for Your flattering
acknowledgement  of my manliness. I wish you to experience some such
ligneousness someday.

 At the risk of running off-topic, why is humidity control
 important in an organ shop?  It seems the wood in an organ
 would be mostly cabinetry, not subjected to the high stress
 and rigorous requirements of a lute soundboard.

lute-harpsichord

2005-04-17 Thread Domjan Gabor
Dear all,

A couple of years ago some members of the list helped me when I was 
inquiring about certain strings concerning a lute-harpsichord 
(lautenwerk) my luthier friend Tihamer Romanek started to build then. 
The instrument is ready and I believe it is just fantastic, you can 
listen to the sound at:

www.romanektihamer.hu

Actually the homepage is pretty clumsy (language mistakes, double 
version downloads at same points instead of the planned pieces, the name 
of the lute player (Istvan Szabo) missing, and so on, and so on), but I 
decided not to postpone writing this letter any longer, since the 
webmaster seems to have disappeared, or unwilling to correct his poor 
work.

You can also see and listen to a theorbo and an archlute Tihamer has 
built recently and is ready to sell since the person who ordered them 
got into financial problem. Both are very good instruments I am 
convinced after trying them.

Thanks and best regards,

Gabor Domjan

Re: FW: Lute related podcasting

2005-04-17 Thread LGS-Europe

No, no, you're getting it all wrong.

I never said you should not pay for downloading magnatune music.

What I'm saying, or rather asking, is:

Is there any podcasting out there on lute related matters? If not, I
believe there should be.


Point taken. My friend Michiel Niessen has some of his, and mine if I
remeber correctly, recordings on his web site. Of which I have have lost the
URL, and a Google search didn't help either. Sorry.
On my web site you'll find only a snippet of a Japanese lullaby with Panormo
accompaniment. Perhaps I should put up an MP3 of one track of each cd I 
made. One
day ...

 have a booklet. I like especially the Michelangelo Galilei by Paul Beier,
 which is music I often play.

Hoi Taco

Herringman has wonderful cds too: Josquin and the Sienna book! And 
everybody: do listen to Matthew Wadsworth's cd of Johnson (solo and song): 
great music, great (all-gut!) playing, wonderful voice. Comes highly 
reccomended.
