Dear lutenists,

baroque lute ms. The B-part of the piece is very near...

2012-05-30 Thread A. J. Ness

Dear  Caius,

For Kapsberger's  third book of chitarone music, there is only one copy
known, and it lacks the pages you ask about.  That
copy was in the magnificent Berlin library of Werner Wolffheim which went on
the auction block in 193?.  A private individual in Bologna acquired that
copy.  For years the book was known only from its listing in the auction 
catalogue.


In 2001 several lute tablatures were announced for auction by Sotheby's.
Yale wanted a German tablature for their rare book collection (they had no
examples of German tablature), and so gathered up monies to purchase a
Heckel tablature which was in the sale.  Yale got lucky.  The price on the
Heckel was driven beyond their budget.  (It's the most unexciting book of
lute music everg; and ten copies are known to exist.)   So they
reconnoitered and decided on the Kapsberger
third chitarone book.  Little did they know that it was the copy from
Bologna, the only one known to exist.  What a coup!  For all of us, because
its purchase by Yale  finally made that Kapsberger volume available to 
everyone.


And our Diego Cantalupi had his own coup.  He made the first recording of
its music (a fine one, too!).  AND the Yale library permitted him to include 
a facsimile of the

entire print in his CD.  http://www.mvcremona.it/CDKapsbergeEngl.html

This just tends to illustrate how ephemeral is the lute repertory.  One copy 
of a
book that was surely issued in several hundred copies.  From a court case, 
we know Dowland's third book of ayres was printed in 1250 copies.  Less than 
a dozen survive.  u.s.w.


Arthur.
