[BAROQUE-LUTE] Vivaldi - Concertos and Trios for Lute and Mandolin

2010-09-12 Thread Fabio Rizza

 Dear friends,
I'm pleased to announce that my edition of Vivaldi's Trios and Concertos 
for lute and mandolin is now available.

The volume contains the following works:
• Trios RV 82 and 85
• Lute Concerto RV 93
• Mandolin Concertos 425 and 532
• Concerto 540 for viola d'amore, lute and strings
Its main features are:
- Concerto RV 425: the ossia measures, written by Vivaldi for the 
mandolin part and omitted in Malipiero's edition, are here included
- Concerto RV 540: the lute part includes the basso continuo staff, as 
in the original manuscript; the viola d'amore part includes the tutti, 
as in the original ms
- the separate lute parts are always available in two formats: one 
written at pitch, and the other one written on octave higher, as in the 
original manuscripts

- the separate lute parts always include the basso continuo staff
The volume contains a rich essay by Rossella Perrone (in Italian and in 
English) about Vivaldi's works for plucked instruments.

[BAROQUE-LUTE] Post French and Pre Weiss: what shall we call it?

2010-09-12 Thread Daniel Shoskes
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?

Danny

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. PL-Wu2008 
 / 44 (Aria)  |  6. PL-Wu2009 / 52 (Aria)   |  7. S-Klm 4a / 8v 
 (Gavotte de Monr CL)   |  8. S-Klm21072 / 73v (Gavotte de comte 
 Loge)   |  9. Stockholm 4a / 6 (keyboard)

All the best,

[LUTE] Watch key or Preston tuner info wanted

2010-09-12 Thread Dave Sawdon
   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?

2010-09-12 Thread Alexander Batov
 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:

Perhaps.  Arthur Ness renders it poverin in his online table of contents of 
Marco's works.  When I put Paul O'Dette's Marco CD in my computer, that title 
comes up Pioverin on the index, but on the CD sleeve, it's ioverin which 
must be a typo.  I got a private email saying that in one modern dialect, 
pioverin is something like a rain gutter.  I cruised through the Bayerische 
Staatsbibliothek Mus. Ms. 266, but I couldn't make out most of the titles, 
which means even if I found the word, I probably wouldn't have any better idea 
about what it says.
