Does anyone have any thoughts about the ornaments in the Board
manuscript? There is a plus sign (+) and a dot to the side of a note
that I'm encountering in Sellngers Rounde. I feel that the + can be a
mordant or backfall from below. It is especially effective as a
backfall when you do it like

That's my understanding too, - of today's uds. Daniel Franke has
mentioned that early uds had frets.

Hello all,
I've arranged a few Christmas tunes for lute (or guitar) and will
eventually post the results at the Fronimo group. I was wondering if anyone
had any requests, as I plan to do a few more.

My Lute teacher once told me there are no easy Lute pieces. I would like to

Dear Vance,
no matter if it is in Italian of French tab, I personally
think that Francesco (even the "easier" pieces) is definitively not the
right music for beginners. Can be played, but I would recommend something
else - less complex- if I had a student starting from zero.
Back again -
No, the program (in Visual Basic, by Michael Graham) will not work as it
stands. Sauters files have a standard line length, a title format, and each
staff starts with an unbroken line, which tells the program that it is a
staff to read. The flags are also different. I'm sure it woul
TXS Leonard,
of course Donald is the guy to talk to! I'd checked his software ages ago,
but forgot that it converted Cripp's tab to the very readable guitar tab. My
excuse (not very valid) is, I only had a demo...

I think you've got it the wrong way round, Leonard. Sauter's files look
more like the playable pieces in monospace that are more often given as
examples on the list. There is a program that will strip them and turn them
into Wayne's TAB type files, but I don't think it will work on the sort that
Here is a wonderful, beautiful and easy Fantasia by F. DaMilano. It is in

What is the string length of this instrument? It looks to be about the same

Hi Michael:
There is no way I can know for sure, or anyone else for that matter, but a
good guess it is the initials of the builder. Often Lute building was a
family operation involving sons and cousins. It is of course possible that
the initials belong to the maker that made the modifications.
Actually the modern oud has a single sixth string.

Wasn't the Berr a baroque lute? I recall one in the posession of Count
Losy or the Lobcovic family (would have to look it up).

after posting my little version of the Rosetta stone, it struck me, that it
probably wouldn't be very difficult for one of the computer wizards of this

No, D., they don't seem to be published yet. Why, I don't know... As I
understand it, the work is in progress in Italy, so there are still hopes.
But one duet, from the UK Lute society (ed. Gregory) is available.

Indeed, is the last duet of the CD. Gracias for your answer.
