Yes, indeed. I asked a Polish friend of mine. She is a
Dear Vance,
At present three instruments are considered officially as authentic vihuelas
but in my opinion the Belchior Dias 1581 instrument (Royal College of Music,
London) deserves to be added to this list. The main body of music for the
vihuela is in the seven books which were published

Hi there,
I'm afraid that Chambure's vihuela has gained as well universal
acceptance, at least within vihuela experts' circle.
On the other hand Jacquemart-Andre's vihuela was, as Eugene suggests, built
for different purposes than playing music on it(probably a sort of an exam

Italy, for which Milan, Mudarra, Fuenllana and Narvaez wrote books of music;

Yeah, but what's the prize??
Of course if lutenists were a truly enterprizing bunch, they could all put
10 dollars in the pot and truly get something going. Or the contestants
could make sure their piece can be transcribed for guitar to enter one of
the many competitions for that instrument.
Yeah, but what's the prize??
OK: the winning SET will get an original Turovsky oil.
What will it take for lutenists to take contemporary music for their
instrument seriously, I wonder: Should it come from the top - our virtuoso
artists, like Ron McFarlane, or from the base? Should it come at
Hi all,

more. That's the whole

Dear Rainer,
I hadn't read Tess Knighton's review, but I have now. There's
something about this sort of pompous and wordy musicological
writing, which I find intensely irritating.
