   Hm... WOULD YOU CONSIDER IT TO BE ACCEPTABLE IF POETS PLAY THE LUTE ??

   WOULD BE INTERESTING TO HAVE A LIST OF ACTION-PAIRS WHICH SHOULD NOT
   BE PERFORMED BY ONE PERSON...

[LUTE] new lute piece by Matthew Leigh Embleton

2012-12-15 Thread WALSH STUART
Here is an attempt at Matthew's  'Nocturne in E minor'. It was 
originally written for Baroque lute but he also arranged it for 
Renaissance lute. I'm playing it on an 8 course Renaissance lute with 
the seventh course at E.

I used to have a 13 course Baroque lute and I appreciate how different 
that sound is.

If you mean at the same time;
-Shaving with a straight razor in one hand and eating with chopsticks in 
the other. But Thomas Campion- arguably at his  less profound level than 
Dowland- was better at being both poet  composer of songs. Never the 
underlay problems such as found in so many of Dowland's second verses 
and subsequent verses. But I still prefer Dowland.

   Mistakenly not posted to all:
   When pondering what lutenists should not
   Expend the few hours one has got,
   The writing of verse
   Seems quite the reverse
   Of tuning a string in its slot.
   Tuning a lute takes much time
   If one is to play quite sublime,
   So if one reflects
   On those things that do vex,
   Luters should leave off with rhymes.

   My verse is quite worse,
   When the lute gut strings feel thirst-
   Such dry winter air.

[LUTE] De Visee tab emergency

2012-12-15 Thread benny
Hi, folks! Hope all is well. I'm sending out a request for a couple of  
De Visee tabs that I can't seem to locate.


In the A minor Suite d'Amila, there's a prelude and a courante. In the  
(awesome) Richard Civiol tabs that are available  
http://luthlibrairie.free.fr, I can't seem to find those two pieces -  
are they in the collection, and I'm just too dense to locate them? If  
anyone has a line on those two tabs, I'd be really grateful - please  
get in touch. Happy various holidays - Ben S
