[LUTE] Re: A special request (Kapsberger)
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.
