[LUTE] Re: Kapsberger Canarios
Steve, Normally these pieces are played on the theorbo, so if it definitely was a baroque guitar being played, they must have been arrangements. I know Maxwell Davis's Farewell to Stromness, although I haven't heard it for a decade or so. I seem to recall it is a set of variations on a passacaglia. Doesn't sound to me particularly like any of the arpegiattas or canarios by Kapsberger, but I suppose there would be a similarity with his passacaglias. It might well fit the lute. The guitar version had to miss out much of the interesting dissonance of the piano original. Nice tune, though. Go ahead and make an attempt, then let us know the result. Rob 2008/10/28 Steve Ramey <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Dear Collected Wisdom, I just heard a fellow playing a baroque guitar solo on the radio. It was something called Arpegiatt and Canarios, by Kapsberger. The Canarios sounded rather similar to the modern piano piece, Farewell to Stromness, which we may know as a guitar piece. I've thought for a long time it might be interesting on the lute. Anybody know anything about this one?

[LUTE] Re: Kapsberger Canarios
Hi Steve I just heard a fellow playing a baroque guitar solo on the radio. It was something called Arpegiatt and Canarios, by Kapsberger. The Canarios sounded rather similar to the modern piano piece, Farewell to Stromness, which we may know as a guitar piece. I've thought for a long time it might be interesting on the lute. Anybody know anything about this one? There is a Canario by Kapsberger composed to chitarrone (theorbo). Could the piece be an arrangement for baroque guitar. Listen http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=avaqohM2T9k to hear, if it is the same piece? Arto To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html

Arto, That's exactly it. Thank you! Is it available in a PDF file?

[LUTE] Re: Kapsberger Canarios
Rob, Thanks for the thoughts. I thought this might be right up your alley. As you see, Arto knew the one I had heard. That said, I'll eventually track down the piano piece and try to make a version for my own use. I'll let you know if I have some success.

Here's a tip: Farewell to Stromness is great on theorbo! 2008/10/28 Steve Ramey <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > Dear Collected Wisdom, > I just heard a fellow playing a baroque guitar solo on the radio.
