[LUTE] Re: Mandolin at Kedleston Hall
Dear Stewart, Eugene and all, Thanks for sharing this interesting painting! I think we cannot be sure that this a neapolitan mandolin. I suppose this instrument is more the older lute-like instrument because of the following aspects: - where the fingerboard passes into the belly - there are the points of the fingerboard (Deckenspitzen in German?), that's not typical for a neapolitan mandolin - there is no hint that the strings are attached to the end of the instrument, e.g. there is no decoration at the lower end of the belly - maybe what seems to a hint for the neapolitan mandolin is the board-shaped peg-box with backward fitted pegs but we also find that an lute-like mandolins (like instruments made by Stradivari) And indeed it would be really early for the neapolitan mandolin to have spread to England... But to make a more precise statement we should have a picture of a better quality or see the picture by ourselves. What is also very interesting: If we can call this instrument a baroque mandolin we then have one more example for quill technique on this instrument...

The first wave of mandolin popularity (and almost all the first method books beginning in the 1760s) happened in Paris. Without knowing anything about the family's history, I suspect that portraying themselves with a mandolin this early in that movement was a demonstration of their cosmopolitan stylishness.

I was recently sent the following query from a friend who is researching the music there. -o-O-o- If you go to http://www.nationaltrust.org.uk/main/w-vh/w-visits/w- findaplace/w-kedles tonhall then click on 'Meet the family' the first picture is of Lady Caroline Colyear (1733-1812) daughter of the 2nd Earl of Portmore, who married Nathaniel Curzon in 1750: there is a charming portrait in the Family Corridor of her playing the mandolin ?? , with Nathaniel standing, by Arthur Devis, dated 1754.

[LUTE] Re: Mandolin at Kedleston Hall
Good points, all, Susanne. It certainly would be better to see better detail of the instrument. You're right, even in the larger image I dug up, I can't see any detail at all of string attachment. However, there are a couple features that make me think it's much more likely a Neapolitan mandolin than any other instrument type. I suspect you're aware of all to follow, but for discussion with the group... Early Neapolitan mandolins tend to have larger and especially deeper soundboxes relative to scale length than their contemporary 4th-tuned mandolini. Some larger soundboxes on 6-course, 4th-tuned instruments are from the Presbler family. Even then, they are much broader than deep. The soundbox portrayed by Devis looks large and deep to me, even for the Neapolitan type. I can see no rose that would have been more common to 4th-tuned mandolini, and the obvious scratchplate is quite typical in shape to other early Neapolitan mandolins. What little can be seen of the bridge seems too fine for a fixed, lute-like tie-block design. Much is obscured by the player's hand, but the narrowness of the bridge appears to be continued into the region that would be carrying strings. A piece of bone or ivory that narrow would almost certainly be a floating unattached bridge with strings simply passing over it. That width just wouldn't provide much gluing surface for bearing tension if fixed to the soundboard with strings fixed to it. You'd mentioned the flat peghead, Susanne. Such a design was standard to Neapolitan mandolin, but would be at least a little unusual to lute-like things, including 4th-tuned, gut-strung mandolins. Of the few mandolino-like patterns left in Stradivari's shop, only one shows a guitar-like, flat peghead. I am only aware of two extant authenticated mandolini by Stradivari, and both feature the more typical curved and partially scrolled pegbox. You can see details of the most famous one here, e.g.: http://orgs.usd.edu/nmm/PluckedStrings/Mandolins/StradMandolin/StradMandolin .html The Cutler-Challen mandolino pictured above was restored with a different finial, but the functional aspects of the pegbox were maintained. You can see an image of the un-restored piece in: Tyler, J. 1981. The Italian Mandolin and Mandola 1589-1800. Early Music 9(4):438-446. In zooming in on electronic images of the Devis painting, detail is lost in the peghead. However, from the couple pairs of pegs still visible, it appears to be designed around a total of eight pegs. A four course, 4th-tuned, gut-strung mandolino at this late date would have been quite uncommon. Of course, your point that none of this is definitive without detail is quite valid, Susanne. But I think the Neapolitan type simply is more likely from what I can see. I do wish we could see more detail! Do you know of any higher resolution images available of this painting, Stewart?

[LUTE] Re: Larry Brown
I am surprised to hear that business is slow! I ordered a guitar from him about five years ago, have received no status report on its construction, and have written several times without answer. Something must be afoot, but I have no idea what. Joseph Casazza On May 25, 2010, at 6:12 PM, Christopher Stetson wrote: Yes, I'm sure that's the Lawrence Brown everyone's been talking about. I contacted him last fall about a lute, and his reply implied that business was VERY slow. I'm not surprised to hear he's begun building steel-string guitars, though I hope he might be persuaded... Best and keep playing, Chris. Christopher Wilke chriswi...@yahoo.com 5/25/2010 3:24 PM This could be him. Don't confuse Larry K Brown with Larry D Brown in Cincinnati. LDB is another former lute builder who has also given up lute making in lieu of other things, although he's still playing early music in the Cincy area.

His web site is down and he is not answering his business phone and not returning messages left. I hope he is OK. I shipped one of my lutes to him with finish problems to be refinished last January and I have not heard from hm since then.
