Thanks Arto! -Truly moving  beautiful. I said he was one of the great

Yes, the tuning is (1st to 6th): c,g,eb,bb,f,c.

Actually I found the notated music and guitar tab to this piece (and 
many others, whole book) in http://www.scribd.com/ while searching and 
dowloading the 6 books of Air de Cour by Bataille. Yes, they are there too!!

[LUTE-BUILDER] Re: moving soundboard from workshop to house

2009-02-12 Thread Jon Murphy
I confess I haven't read through this thread, and have little to offer in 
details. But in 1959 I bought a classical guitar in Spain, a decent one 
although not top of the line. I was there on the tab of my Uncle Sam on one 
of his haze grey yachts, I was some months at sea in varying climates before 
returning home. I left the guitar in NJ, similar latitude but a bit cooler 
and damper. The next time I came home the guitar had exploded.


I have scanned the thread and see the caveats - but it would be a rather 
difficult world if we had to make and play our instruments in a limited 
geography. As one who turns wood and carves it I'd suggest that the wood is 
more adaptive than it would seem to be. It needs time to adjust. If the 
piece, be it an instrument or an artifact, is of differing woods they will 
adjust to changes in moisture (and that is really the point, the temperature 
of the wood is really a matter of the nature of the moisture) differently.


You want to have your instrument playable when you travel, although I don't 
think a gig in the Sahara should be immediately followed by one in Alaska. 
Release the string tension, although that is annoying as the strings also 
have a memory. If you are making a fix let the wood come back before 
restringing. I'm having a problem with a harp fix at the moment as it is 
creeping again with the soundboard pulling out - and I left it several 
days without putting tension back on it. The side frames are cherry and the 
soundboard a Sitka spruce, the changes in the wood are not only the changes 
in the climate but also the speed of the reaction of the wood.


Best, Jon

[LUTE] Re: Fine example of 6-course LH technique!+Baglama

2009-02-12 Thread Anthony Hind

Excellent music and example of TO position Arto!
It is a pity that we can't observe JH's LH and RH positions  
simultaneously.
It looks as though he might sometimes be using the thumb, as Mark  
Wheeler suggested, to protect the bass from being hit in wider  
plectrum movement, but perhaps he is also stopping down?


His position is exactly that of a Turkish Baglama player who I saw a  
couple of years ago.
This appears to be a lesson in Baglama playing, where we actually see  
basic TO technique explained: unfortunately, I don't speak Turkish.

Here is a another example of a Baglama player with what is probably  
an unusual RH (variable position) technique and some TO stopping:

Hi guys,

I found a very good example of excellent 6 course LH technique!
And btw, it is also left-handed. Extreme top level piece and  
performance, too! See
