[LUTE] Jingle Bell Rock

2015-12-08 Thread Edward Martin
   Dear ones,
   I am playing at a Christmas office party in a couple of days, and
   naturally, they asked me to do Christmas music, and I happen to have a
   healthy assortment of pieces.
   I think it would be funny if I could do the old 50's or 60's tune,
   "Jingle Bell Rock", but I have no time to write an edition for lute.
   Has anyone done this piece for a renaissance lute, and if so, would you
   mind sharing it?
   Thanks in advance!
   ed

A few might be interested to know that the new version of
MuseScore has pretty o-kay lute tab capabilities (with
playback). It's not as good as Fronimo, but it's free and
works great for 6-course, while 7 & 8 course is managable
if the bass lines are not too active (for 8 course, you
have to write with a full 8-line staff, then hide the extra lines
and write in the slash notation in text -- yeah, that part's
not so great, but it works).

It's available for windows, max, and linux:

Slainte!

There have been discussion of having to remap keyboard layouts in order to run
Stringwalker, Django or Fronimo on a Mac. The good news is that I've plugged an
Adesso windows keyboard into my MacPro and everything seems to work the way it
is supposed to, both Insert and Delete keys work perfectly in combination with
the Windows/Command key.

Enjoy!
Amities,
