   I would be interested to read about dumps and tiompans! Do I need some
   sort of RSS reader to follow the link you give below? I just get
   unformatted lists when I click on the link.

 If you follow that link you will see a link to a transcription of
 Arthurs dump from the Marsh LB. Following a recent discussion on
 dumps on this list, I decided to try to recap the current state of
 knowledge on the Dump as a type of music and collected various
 quotes and documents to that effect. Unfortunately, not only is the
 evidence fuzzy at best, but I was lead in the direction of an even
 more elusive Irish topic and instrument: the tiompan. Maybe some of
 you will find that information entertaining, and perhaps some of the
 documents useful. I also linked in the facsimile images of the piece
 from the Braye MS.
 Any feedback on the dump would be of considerable interest to me,
 gross as it may sound. I have not been able to check the latest
 Grove information for instance which is a real shame.

 anton, I didn't write that I don't like your intavolations or guitar
 arrangements. Please don't be so quickly offended by what I wrote
 and please do continue your work. I only asked what the purpose is
 of sending emails for every addition or minor change to a piece,
 while there are so many better alternatives for getting the
 attention of your efforts like a webpage with a latest additions
 page, a rss xml feed, twitter or simply a separate mailing list.
 It's just an idea, not a critic on what you do.

 I will not upload any more Intavolations. My work was thought for
 the luteplayers in any level. Not everybody can play the English
 Treble Ground duets or the very complicated Terzi duos or some else.

 If I look at mediafire, where I first uploaded my Intavolations,
 there are more than 15000 downloads! So I dont understand your
 opinion about solo lute players. May be,- but thats one of my
 reasons I do the Intavolations!
 I was 10 years teacher for classical guitar and later 15 years for
 the Renaissance lute. And my experience with all the hundreds of
 pupils was that they could benefit a lot of ensemble playing.
 Rhythme, Hearing, Playing prima vista, and a lot more. But a crucial
 effect is the sound effect of more lutes in an ensemble. Because of
 the less technical demand the lute players in an Ensemble has an
 overwelming soundeffect. But I dont want to defend my work. So if
 you feel so, I dont will upload any more Intavolations.
 I think my announcements are not too much, when I have a look at
 some gibberish you can find here. (More than one has complained
 this!)
 But ok, why should I make any uploads more?
 So all lute players who has downloaded my work, will give thanks to
 you!
