I stand corrected, it's true. The booklet tells of the poetesses, Mary Wroth et al, and I hadn't noticed that they aren't the composers as well. Sorry, that was my fault.

[BAROQUE-LUTE] Re: Pitch for French music
Hi Anthony, Yes, this is what I was getting at. There is this general tendency in many stringed instruments to search for the =8Cbreaking point' of the highest string and go from there, even design wise (as in harpsichord building.) I think this idea crosses countries, periods and many different solo stringed instruments, but that is just my personal view. It is very hard and well neigh impossible for me (please correct me if I am wrong) to find the opposite discussed or written: tuning the overall pitch of an instrument's strings down, much lower than the breaking point of the highest treble string. I simply cannot imagine anyone tuning a stringed instrument a semitone or whole tone below a comfortable breaking point just for the heck of it. To take a relatively short short string length of 68cm and 11 courses and tune it very low just because of the pitch of Hotteterre flutes seems counterintuitive to me, especially with gut Sorry for the ranting!

But I think we can assume...
At the risk of disagreeing with you and sounding a bit
like Donald Rumsfeld, we KNOW that there is a lot we
do NOT KNOW when it comes to the ancient strings and
how exactly they were made. Back in the day, so much
of the process of making a type of string was specific
to a region and held as a closely kept secret by the
guilds. That's why there are Minikins, ("Munich's"?)
Romans, Lyons, Venice-catlins, etc. - each highly
regarded as centers specializing in a single type of
string, i.e. trebles, meanes, basses, etc.
I can provide no hard evidence, but it's probably a
safe bet that the cities with a reputation for making
the best trebles knew more about the qualities of this
type of string; more than we do now. Does this mean
that they were able to make more robust, longer
lasting strings? Again, there's no proof, but
increasing the life of a treble string would
undoubtedly have been one of the areas of prime
concern. (Indeed, Mace in 1676 implies that trebles
were stronger than the basses!)
Think about it: If all you ever did as an ancient
string maker was concentrate on treble strings, this
would give you plenty of time to try many solutions.
And since the master/apprentice system was in use,
this would provide the chance to implement
improvements over _generations_ within an entire
workshop of subordinates, each with his own expertise
and knowledge. And, if your reputation relied on
making the best possible treble strings, naturally you
wouldn't want anyone else knowing your secret formula.
If this applies to your contemporaries it will apply
even more to folks hundreds of years in the future
(i.e. us).
Today, we put an awful lot of (often misplaced) faith
in our abilities to research and use the scientific
method to solve problems from the past. There's the
unspoken conviction that, with our superior technology
and cognative skills, we will naturally uncover all of
the secrets of the "primitives." (If WE can't make
gut trebles better right now, there's _no_way_ the
ancients could outdo us!) And, being modern
consumers, we expect to be provided a "one stop"
string maker who's trebles, meanes, and basses are all
equally good.
Is it really realistic for us to expect a modern gut
string maker to be able to discover and master all of
the intricasies of making each type of string that all
of the combined workshops of Europe, working with
generations of accumulated technical knowledge
specific to a type of string, each operating in
multiple locales did? Considering the comparitively
short time that serious research has been ongoing into
ancient string-making, the answer is obvious.
My heart is with today's string makers. Keep working
on it; progress is being made. I include modern gut
in my plethora of stringings. And Ed, I applaud your
and others' efforts with using gut strings. You've
gotten some very beautiful results with it.
However, it is a dangerous game for us as players to
be basing important musical considerations solely
around our very limited assumptions of those strings
today.

No, what you meant to say is that we can not string it
up to "f" at 415 (or 423 or 445) with one of our guts
