I'm not sure if it has been mentioned, but Frank Wallace has some lovely recordings for lute and voice -- he's a baritone and plays lute, vihuela and guitar. For his own compositions, I'd check out "Voices in the Dark ..." -- a pdf sample here http://www.duoliveoak.com/MusicPages/voicesinthedarksam

Look - I have no interest in a flame war. My problem is specifically this: Musical acoustics and the study of instruments is an established field with a history and a literature (to which I have given you some helpful pointers). Without having looked at any of this, you make some rather sweeping

Lute song with low male voice (favorite CDs?)

2004-01-20 Thread James di Properzio
Jon, Stewart, David, Sean, Stephan et al... Thanks for such a fascinating discussion. I do think the lighter "ballad" voice will work for many songs--especially as I'm relatively young and can stretch it a bit. Also, as I mentioned in the other thread, the lute in question is nominally G but

Resonant frequency

2004-01-20 Thread James di Properzio
Dear all, Yes, it's certainly acoustically complex, as the many factors mentioned contribute to more than the base resonance--together these factors make up the voice of the lute itself, which we all know to be richly variable. I don't hear anything jumping out too strongly on my lutes--the c

Thank you, Stephan. Those are the words from the Adr. but the concordances are helpful. I'll check the Vallet for variations. And there's a bransle Guillemette, too--great! By the way, the bass line is fairly active and might be an interesting experiment for those looking to try Stewart's idea

It's adequate for transcription purposes though. As Leonard says, you have to manipulate some of the images due to bleeding. (i.e. adjust brightness and focus). I suppose players would make their own version of any given piece anyway. Having the red ciphers for the songs and all 7-books-in-one for

Tim, The meter is reading the frequencies of the sound waves it receives. Your ear is responding to the frequencies of the sound waves it receives, as it perceives them. On the lute, as on the harp, the real thing you hear is the vibration of the strings themselves. They may be enhanced by the res

Yes I toyed a bit with the idea suggesting this, too. Bass voices are often printed in the book. I cannot really suggest this because we are living in the age of CDs and a certain culture which rather copies a performance than thinking about a musical piece by themselfes. So it would need boldness
