Simple RT, there were no Aztecs in South America. The food chain may have
been the same regarding the dominant tribe, but they weren't Aztecs. The

Prickesong is the term used to refer to mensural notation as opposed

England has produced many famous and innovative rock guitarists (and their
bands): Hendrix, Harrison, Page, and Clapton, to name a few. How
plausible is it that this is attributable, at least in part, to England's
lute history?
Not very. Hendrix was an American, and the

I try to remember what a horsemanship instructor told her star pupil, a shy

Oh yes! It was great fun to listen to Chopin playing his music. These
machines were great - even the dynamics were recorded (at least there
were dynamics hearable).
I don't recall completely where I've heard this but it was in a museum

Dear Herbert, Howard all,
My own recollection is that popular music was rather less
compartmentalised in England in the late 60's and 70's than it is now.
The guitarists John Renbourn and Bert Jansch both knew and
recorded lute pieces on the guitar, and they were both well
known in the pop arena
So here's a different question: What do you say to the performers when
you are obligated to talk to them afterward but you didn't really like
the performance all that much?
This question is particulary difficult for me, as I value heartfeltness
and innate taste far above technique and formal
Herbert said:

everyone feels that way.
Then a good thing to tell the performers would be I love how you put your
heart and soul into playing the music!
I think we should provide the audience with a copy of the music! I went into
one festival, playing classical guitar, and the adjudicator said of my
performance that was a wonderful piece of music you played, unfortunately
it bore no resemblance to the copy you handed in to me earlier!
