[LUTE] Re: East European renaissance lute music in staff notation
Thanks for the plug, Tony. I am a bit short of time these days, but I'd send the entire batch of MIDIs (all 200) to anyone willing to convert them into notation. As to music, it is certainly as eastern European as it gets RT I'm surprised Roman hasn't chipped in here. Some of his arrangements for Sarmaticae, Ruthenicae and Balli are still available in midi format on his site, which means that they could be read into staff notation.

I would be grateful for any suggestions and music if possible ,please : ^). I gather this is for a Harp festival in Edinburgh in January 2007. In this context, East European would include Russia, Poland Germany, Hungary etc. thanks for your help, I hope!

But the truth is that most of it is out of print for many years now and circulates at best in xerox copies. If you are very lucky you may find something in antiquarian bookstores. Good music libraries might have some titles. PWM has an anthology of Eastern European lute music which is available online.

The pieces are from a manuscript formerly in Gdansk (Danzig) and are simply titled B.P., which stands for Balletto Polacho, not Bart. Pekiel. The manuscript might even date from before Pekiel was born. But it's a good source for Polish dances. Other composers, some already mentioned, would be Valentin Bakfark (Hungarian lutenist working in Poland), Diomedes Cato, Caspar Polack, Albert Dlugoraj. All are available in modern editions with transcripions into modern notation. VB by Daniel Benko, and most of the others ed. Pietr Pozniak. The edition Daniel was refering to may be found in the series Wydawnictwo dawnej muzyki polskiej vols. 30 and 62. Vol. 30 uses the Schrade method of transcrption, and was wisely withdrawn and redone in conventional notation as vol. 62. The pieces are also available in an edition by Ochs euphemistically for lute tuned in E (or guitarg).

I would not mind doing the conversion, could be an interesting project. Are they all available on your site Roman? Are the sources documented too? am always interested in discovering new music.
