[LUTE] Fronimo corrected and reworked Lute Intavbulations with better layouts -14

2014-10-18 Thread Anton Höger

Hi,

Here is the list of new lute intabulations, or corrected and reworked 
intabulations in Fronimo, with better layouts on IMSLP.

I didn’t know until these arrangements that Phalese' works sounds so great and 
I am wondering that there are almost so less or no recordings of his works.
To the understanding of all: 
—— I do these transcriptions not only for voice and lute, but they also serve 
to understand the voice-leading, the melodic line and the frame(work) of the 
compositions. A must for all who are engaged in ( not only -Phalese -Theatrum 
Musicum’s) Lute-intabulations! ———

Tragic news coming out of Nepal. It would

Tomlinson and his lovely wife Jan were
 caught in that monster avalanche
in Nepal that has killed about 30 people.
 Grant has survived, but alas,
Jan was not so fortunate. Grant is
 currently taking part in the
recovery operation to help find Jan.
 
I am utterly shocked by this news. I just
 saw Grant a few short weeks
ago in Vancouver and he was so excited
 about this trip.A

Hi Martin,

That's a nice essay on the instrument. Thanks for championing the doubled 
courses - and the doubled top course. (I have a doubled chanterelle on my bass 
lute and do appreciate it.) And it's a stunning lute!

I was not able to play the Piccininni for some reason. I tried it in two 
browsers.

best wishes,
Sean

Martin- that is one sweet looking masterpiece; I would have killed for 
one (or paid you to build one!) back in 1999 when I was working on 
Piccinini a whole lot. Perfect symmetry! The historic survivors vary a 
bit in this regard, yours looks just like one of the better ones that I 
have seen. Not being able to get one was part of what prompted me to go 
for a Chambure vihuela copy when I became aware of that new find.


I like how your playing smooths out on the Piccinini as you get further 
into the piece- I hope you can build one for yourself, so that your own 
playing comes up to your 6-course fluency.


The double chanterelle is a feature that I have been struggling with (on 
the Vihuela) for years; first it took a long time to get the stringing 
to work- string material/diameter/tension/pitch level combo right, and 
then more time getting the touch right. But so worth it! At it's best, 
there is a wonderful concord  unity with all the other double courses, 
but when out of sorts or practice it can really suck. I can see why 
there was such controversy about double vs. single for quite a while 
back in the day.


I would conjecture that some modern approaches to the liuto attorbiato 
design with short but single diapasons are indeed taking advantage of 
wire overspun basses that have enough harmonic overtones to get away 
with no 8ve strings, but can still give a bit of the feel of that long, 
extended neck growl and twang so typical of  archlutes  theorbi. For 
the liuto attorbiato, I much prefer your solution- because it is not, 
after all, an archlute (much less a theorbo).


Congrats, and I hope you build more!

Dan

   Thank you again Martin for having built such a wonderful instrument for
   me. it was my request to have an instrument as close as possible to the
   disposition of the surviving models, because I was persuaded that by
   doing so, it could reveal unexpected solutions of unsolved musical and
   technical questions . For instance, the kind of dedillo described by
   Piccinini is so much more obvious with low tension, and works more
   efficiently with double chanterelle ! We were both conscious that it
   was a bit risky, but you went all the way for me, and you made the
   right decisions while building the lute. Yes, it works

[LUTE] Strings for heavier lute

2014-10-18 Thread Charles Mokotoff
   List,
   I know, from my recent post, there are a minority of players on this
   list who either own heavier non-historical instruments or own and
   actually play them. I am in the latter group, with a 1977 Papazian.
   I have tried a variety of strings, and its the trebles that seem the
   toughest to get right. Too thick and they may snap, or be just
   impossible to tune (I'd be better with geared rollers I know), too thin
   and the instrument sounds thin and reedy. I suspect if I were to tune
   this beast in F it would solve a lot of problems, but am doing ensemble
   work mostly.
   That said, I have been discovering that low tension guitar strings work
   fine for the basses. E.g., a 4th string will serve as a 5th course
   nicely. I am going to try the same pattern: a 5th guitar string for the
   sixth course, and a sixth for the 7th and 8th fundamentals.A  Currently
   I am using a KF 74 for the fourth which is surprisingly very good. I
   tried a guitar string 3rd, Carbon Fiber for the fifth course but it was
   awfully wimpy sounding.
   I was wondering if anyone else had ideas on this or has actually tried
   guitar strings as well and what the results were. I know the lutes vary
   widely, mine is 64 cm and I am keeping it tuned in G.
   Thanks.
   Charles
