[LUTE] Re: Dance of the Washer Woman.
Hey-- I think it is great she learned it! I would love to hear it. If anyone would like the music you can download it here [1]http://tinyurl.com/5bodbm as a PDF in tablature for the lute and G clef for recorder, flute or a second lute. I can make a more simplified part for the lute if you wish, or you can just leave out the octave runs. Anyway I'm sure you can play it. I would love to visit Helsinki some day, but my home is in sunny California, surrounded by Palm trees, birds of paradise, the San Francisco Bay, KFC and Burger King. Closest I'll get is my concert in Drottningholm in August of 2008, and that looks like a tricky commute.

Her flute teacher apparently said that she felt it was a little too advanced for her and asked what it's source was, Abigail told her that it was an arrangement that some gentleman in Helsinki had done for her and that it was from an original piece by a German Renaissance lutenist called Hans Neuslider. I think her flute teacher would have shut up by then, the little one can be a bit forceful. I'm now trying to coerce her into recording it onto by Boss BR1600CD, when she does I'll post it up.

David Thanks for sharing. My wife plays flute and this will be fun for us. Kerry David Tayler [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Here's the arrangement, kinda tricky because of the strange harmonies.

[LUTE] Re: Dance of the Washer Woman.
Lovely idea, to make an arrangement like this. I will probably use it myself, since my daughter is also a flautist. Two points to note about the piece: (a) the title Wascha mesa is a corruption of passamezzo and nothing to do with washerwomen (what a pity! But I don't suppose washerwomen had much time for dancing), and (b) as it's a ground bass, there's no limit to the amount of improvising which can be done by both players. As someone said, it's a sort of Renaissance 12-bar blues. Best to all, Martin Narada wrote: Hi David, Yes I have a low F.
