I will be traveling to Washington DC and will have a few spare hours in
the capitol. Any idea how accessible the lute material is at the Folger?
Is it restricted to scholars who book access ahead of time?
Thanks
OK, I'll give it a shot, but I'd have an easier time
listing my favorite foods:
1. J.S. Bach
2. Stravinsky
3. Monteverdi
4. Machaut
5. Ravel
6. Louis Andriessen

Oh yes! YES! I like Rick Wakeman and his the 6 wifes of Henry VIII ...
ELP is another band I really like - it was very popular to my music
teachers. Fanfare for a common man or their Mussorsky setting of
Pictures at an exhibition (along with Tomita's) ...
I also likes Kate Bush's cooperation with
I prefer Appenzeller - it started as a joke: in Appenzell it was not

Going by what I listen to most nowadays (some of them are not mentioned in
the list, but nonetheless...)
Henze,
Boulez,

Interesting poll! So: must be post-renaissance and non-lute;
that means that for example Josquin and Haydn are
15 matches
