[LUTE] Re: Menuet for Mandora (Brussels MS 5.619)
Dear Stuart, Ah.. This MS is, I believe, a copyist's fair copy (for a patron?) - as witnessed by the various missing bars etc. The scribe is not always very careful between showing appoggiaturas and slurs between notes: the examples you list are mostly slurs - it's largely a matter of context. However you'll see that in the second of your examples the scribe isn't always unclear and there is, in fact, a small, but discernible, difference between the 'comma' indicating an appoggiatura on the tablature letter d and the slur stroke between the following two letters b and a. Re repeating minuets and trios: if orchestral practice is anything to go by, they would have expected repeats in both the minuer and trio it but with perhaps the DC reprise of the minuet played only once: I think we often forget these days that many players had rather small collections of music (we are, of course, tremendously fortunate in having centuries on tap).

Regarding ornaments, can you tell me (piece number, bar, beat) which signs you're unsure about? Generally this MS uses the common signs: comma after a tablature letter = upper appoggiatura or/upper trill; semi-circle under a letter = lower appoggiatura (frequently on the second chord of a cadence and quite long as the style by mid 18th C) What about here: [1][1]http://www.pluckedturkeys.co.uk/Trio.jpg bar 10 and especially bar 11 and here: [2][2]http://www.pluckedturkeys.co.uk/Trio1.jpg bar 2, penultimate bar of first section (bar 15). By the way, there are a few concordances with other mandora/gallichon MSs, including: Dresden Brescianello, Donaueschingen 1272; Note that the tablature needs amending in some pieces (possibly copyist errors), eg - No 165 (a little gem): line 2 bar 1 first beat needs amending to r d (on second) a (on first) and d (on fourth); - whole 30 bar missing line 5 between bar 2 and 3 - just follow the bass progression down I agree that there are some gems here. If you just skim sight read through a lot of pieces they can look disappointing but many are worth making more of an effort. I'm always dubious where a whole bar is repeated. For example No 159, a gigue (guigs?), second section, bars 6 and seven are the same and add up to an 11 bar subsection. I suspect that a bar has been repeated by mistake. On the other hand, No 111, Entree, bars 6and 7 of the second section are also identical but seem right?. This is a fine old piece with what almost sounds like a walking bass. (Would you do a rall in bar 8 of the second section?) And finally, all those menuets and trios: do you play the trio (same tempo) and then all of the minuet again?

Lots of short dances and many are quite similar to one another. I can't find anything more specific than 1700-1750 (!) as a date. I've been looking through it again, now with the Lute Society's mandora on loan. There are lots of little errors knocking about and I just can't figure out what some of the ornament signs are meant to mean. There are lots of minuets preceding trios - so presumably it's minuet-trio-minuet? (the full minuet with repeats?). This doesn't seem particularly convincing.(Like a meal with a large first course, then a dessert, and then another large main course again) Anyway here's a minuet, without the following trio. I think it has quite a push to it and reminds me of Logy's guitar music.

[LUTE] Re: Menuet for Mandora (Brussels MS 5.619)
You may be right - I hedged my bets by saying 'perhaps'. What I can say is that in various period bands in which I play the DC of the menuet is invariably played only once. Do the figures actually danced tell us anything? When last playing for 'period' dancers (The Arbeu Dancers) they asked us not to repeat the DC but, of course, they may have simply become hypnotised by modern(ish) practice.

[LUTE] Il me suffit in Ms Mus 2987
Whilst browsing through the lute music at the Bayerische Staatsbibliothek on line, I noticed an extraordinary intabulation of Claudin de Sermisy's Il me suffit in German lute tablature in Ms. Mus. 2987. The manuscript contains music in organ tablature, German lute tablature, French lute tablature and Italian lute tablature. What is so unusual about Il me suffit is that each of the four voices has been given a separate set of rhythm signs. I have only ever seen this once before, which was in Virdung's Musica getutscht und ausgezogen (1511). Seeing the voices intabulated separately in this way helps one understand why the system of one set of conflated rhythm signs evolved as the norm. It is just possible that this copy of Il me suffit was intended for four viols - after all, Hans Gerle used German tablature for viols - but having the four voices so compact, as a score rather than in separate parts, makes me think that the music was intended for lute solo. Underneath Il me suffit is the start of another piece, which I don't recognise. You can see how the scribe drew his staves and bar lines before writing in the numbers and letters for the notes with a rhythm sign for each note. There is a description of the manuscript in Boetticher's RISM volume, p. 224.

[LUTE] Re: Il me suffit in Ms Mus 2987
Dear Stewart, Mus Ms 2987 is a fascicle manuscript. That is several (3?) manuscripts bound together in the mid-19th century. (One fascicle is in the hand of Melchior Newsidler. Willi Apel has published the keyboard pieces.) Some of the pages were discovered in 1840 loose in one of the huge Lassus choir books (5 foot tall!), where they must have been for two centuries. I see no reason to doubt that they are the first stage in making an intabulation. There is, however, an unrelated manuscript in the Munich University library that has German tablature likewise in score format. But the pieces are for viols since some parts are labeled Geygen. There's lute music in that manuscript also. Back across the street to D-Mbs. Mus Ms 1511C has some sketchy pages (lots of corrections) of intabuations of Aspice dominum by Jachet, followed by similar sketchy intabulation of Willaert's Audi filia. Now in the middle of Aspice is a page of German tablature in SATB score format (fol. 3v). It's a tricky passage for Audi filia that the intabulator worked out in SATB tablature score and then copied into the tablature. At the end of that fascile is a dedication to a priest, Al reverendo patre fra matio. (For a related matter see my response to Henner's inquiry.)

[LUTE] Re: looking for Gastoldi scores
Dear Henner, I gather there are many little known treasures in your lovely city. During my student days I visited the Badische Landesbibliothek mainly to look at a manuscript German tablature that originated in the Ettenheim Benedictine Monastery (Sammelband Mus Bd A 678) . The manuscript has intabulations of Lieder by Hassler, many Lutheran chorale settings and some English pieces. The manuscript also has a five-page treatise in Latin (with some Greek words) at its beginning. Wolfgang Boetticher described it as a treatise on ancient Greek scales, and as a result it has been ignored by lutenists and lute scholars. But he wasn't paying attention. It is a rather elementary treatise on how to intabulate vocal music for the lute using German tablature. So I guess in my small way I also made known another of the treasures of your city. But that Karlsruhe Katalog is so very useful. It is really a major resource for all kinds of research. I often use it several times every day.
