Dear Stewart,
what an answer!
Thanks for this very informative and entertaining lecture.
I could insist and say that your answer refering to the usual chord
scheme of the quadro pavan is still unclear regarding the relation to
the lute.
But I think you will voluntarily give an encore without
could quadro also mean a pavane performed in the shape of a square -
square dancing?

This is a Stoessel-Laute (named after the inventor and builder). It was
in use end of the 19th beginning of the 20th century mainly in austria
as far as I know.
Nothing really old but I've heard they would be rare.
best wishes

My experience with prestretched nylgut is that it resumes its
previous relaxed length to a great extent. As I explained in a
previous post, I had a treble break near the bridge, leaving enough
string to retie it and re-use it. In the short time it was relaxed,

No, but there are a lot of songs of all sorts built on the same chord
progression.

I am really reaching back here, but there was a movie from the '70s called Robin and
Marion with Sean Connery and Audrey Hepburn. In the movie, Will Scarlet played
something I think that looked like this, I think. I always wondered what it was.

Dear Bill and Thomas,
I'm afraid the Quadro Pavan has nothing to do with square dancing.
:-(
The Quadro Pavan is similar to many pieces popular in England in the
latter part of the 16th century, which are based on grounds - simple
bass lines which imply a simple harmonic sequence. Another would
Dear Stephen,
I think it is important to differentiate between arpeggiating a
chord, and rolling a chord. I think of arpeggiating as playing each
note of a chord separately, for example this passage from the lute
accompaniment of Thomas Morley's Thirsis and Milla:
Francesco was done, Francis thanked him and gave him his weight in gold.
Rather less than his weight, I think.
Hi,
I've learned while learning the lute that rolling a chord could be
considered a grace. Better to omit in renaissance music and well think
about if and when to use it.
Another question is which note to play on the beat. If you play a melody
most times the melody note should be on the beat in
Hi, I'm new to the list. I joined because I love lute music, but have never
been able to find a way to learn.
There are millions of how-to guitar books, but I can't find anything for the
lute. Anyone have any tips?
In any event, hello!

Thank your for the compliment, Stephen. It is always good to hear positive

Yes, rolled chords are an area that I think is very subjective, as I do not
believe we have all the answers. I have been playing lute for many years,
mostly baroque lute. If one listens
Rolling starts with the bass note on the beat. I try to keep rolling chords
to a minimum in playing renaissance music, reserving it for the moments of

I would humbly disagree with this statement. It depends on the
