Sorry, friends, I misquoted myself in my hurry to get to dinner! The
"Veglie" is of the Unisoni - maybe written by Loredano, but it is not his
"Glorie de gli Incogniti". The "Veglie" is dedicated to Barbara.

Dear all,
I have posted a pre-release of my new software Arpeges. This is only meant
for the curious who have a few minutes to waste on a rainy Saturday
afternoon... The real release won't be for another few weeks, but I have
had some requests from people who want to know what I am up to.

Hi Howard and other lutenists,
the word is certainly older than Dowland - as perhaps everyone already
knows. For ex. in his book "Il Libro del Cortegiano" (1528) Baldessar
Castiglione used the word many times. For example in 4:XLVI he wites:
"E perché, come già avemo detto, tali si fanno gli a

Dear All,
Dowland (1610) says use a 4th course string [probably less than .80mm] for the first
two frets, a 3rd course string [perhaps c.62mm] for the third and fourth frets, a 2nd
course string [perhaps c.50mm] for the fifth and sixth frets, and a first course
string [perhaps c.40mm, he used

I should have seen before responding to his comment. Now we're speculating
whether Roman would enjoy living in Lwow with all those churches. He seems
so much like a New York City kinda guy.
