[BAROQUE-LUTE] Post French and Pre Weiss: what shall we call it?
Having spent much happy time on my 11 course lute playing the music of Reusner, Conradi, Kellner, Weichenberger and St. Luc, it dawns on me that we don't really have a good descriptor for the period. It is after the French precieux and Brise styles (but has some elements), brings in more of a cantabile Italian relationship between melody and bass line but doesn't go all the way to the Gallant emphasis on melody (I am sure I have made many a musicologist cringe with my oversimplifications here). Many recordings that include pieces from the period are titled German Baroque Lute Music, or something similar, but that of course doesn't give a fair geographic representation to the Czech, Silesian, Swedish and Belgian composers. Transitional would be a good descriptive term but alas has already been coapted by those funny tuning systems between Renaissance and d minor. Any ideas?

Well, now there is this (well modest and dark...:-) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ZY1M3QAOZw Arto On Fri, 10 Sep 2010 22:08:08 -0700, David Tayler vidan...@sbcglobal.net wrote: Very cool! dt At 05:22 AM 9/10/2010, you wrote: I wrote about a finding to the baroque lute list, but maybe also the main List is interested in this: Perhaps you or your friends have sung songs of the so Arie Antique? I just got the Rostock Mus.saec. XVII.18.-52.2 published by the Deutsche Lautengesellschaft and edited by Markus Lutz. Very interesting book, clearly much good music at the first sight! I was just glimpsing the ms. here and there, and found something interesting: The Gavotte fol. 26v sounded so familiar - and then I discovered: This is the famous Caro mio ben, which is said to be by Giordiano (1748-1798). Well, not exactly, but very near. And one funny thing is that the ms. is about 1720, which is clearly before Giordiano was born... Markus added interesting extra info: BTW - it has some more concordances, like you can see in Peter's list (http://mss.slweiss.de) and it might probably be by Losy, as it is ascribed to him many times. It even is called Aria in some manuscripts! 33 Gavotte (Losy) C-Dur- D-ROu52-2 / 26v 1. A-KR77 / 30v | 2. D-B40627 / 14v (Curiosa Dama) | 3. PL-Wn396 / 11v (#6) | 4. PL-Wn396 / 18v (#13)| 5.

[LUTE] Watch key or Preston tuner info wanted
I want to make a watch-key tuning mechanism of the type supposedly patented by Preston in the 1770s (not the Portuguese peacock style). I can't find any photos which show a rear view of the tuner, or a cross-section drawing. Does anyone have any info that might be useful?

[LUTE] Re: Watch key or Preston tuner info wanted
It is virtually identical to a 'screw and eye' mechanism of a modern bow, mounted on a brass plate. The 'screw' is let into holes on both ends of the plate and the 'eye' ends with a hook (to which the string is fastened) that slides along the slot of the plate. I never bothered to take photographs of it myself but you may find images on this page useful: http://www.art-robb.co.uk/EG.html Alexander On 12/09/2010 17:49, Dave Sawdon wrote: I want to make a watch-key tuning mechanism of the type supposedly patented by Preston in the 1770s (not the Portuguese peacock style).
