[LUTE] Re: Mandore (instrument) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

2009-02-25 Thread Christopher Stetson
It's not near my bedtime, I'm not tired and looking forward to a guitar trio 
rehearsal.  

I don't dare say that I'll be rehearsing to play the "lute" (organologically 
speaking) that dare not say it's name on this list at a Shakespeare festival.

However, I'd rather Eugene worked on his invasive fishes than a Wikipedia 
article.  Assuming he's trying to keep them from invading, that is.

Best to all, and keep playing.

Actually, the mandolin is quite a different instrument than the
mandolin...in comparing Vivaldi to Calace.  That of Vivaldi certainly
carries many similarities to the soprano mandore of ca. 1600.

I'm also tired and wishing it was bedtime here.  Alas, several hours yet to
go.

   Should we really describe it as a 'forerunner of the mandolin'? Surely
   a different family?

my email client breaks that link, revealing another article that also
needs a tweak.

   http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mandore

relates a breif history of the region called Mandore.  It has a section of
related links which needs expansion to include a link to our article.

Myself, I would probably differentiate between "mandora/mandore" and
"mandola" based upon the ca. 1600 French and Scottish literature for a
soprano tuned in alternating 4ths and 5ths to use the former and the Italian
tuned wholly or mostly in 4ths to use the latter.

Hi, all,
Thanks, Mathias.  
Since you ask, I'd recommend using the more commonly understood "string
length" as opposed to "mensur" in writing for general consumption. 
Otherwise, looks great to this mandore-illiterate but interested party. 

Best to all, and keep playing,
Chris.

Please do keep an eye on the language of the paragraphs that I've just

Good point. The photo of the Hans Ott gittern isn't a good start for an 
entry on the mandore.
