Re: Re: Printing and Binding

Dear Donatella; Your folders are beautiful and very much in keeping with baroque aesthetic practices. You set them up wonderfully with the flowers and your decorative pebbles. They would add to the ambience of any concert. All the Best,

Re: Montagna's lutes

Maybe the higher math of just where to place those frets (and how many) never seemed to impress them. Number of strings and fingers are always right but frets... dang! Maybe it's a left-brain, right-brain thing. s On Mar 29, 2005, at 6:43 PM, James A Stimson wrote: > > > > > And another t

Re: memorization/Re: Gallot speaks...

Ed, Thanks for advice. I think your right about memorizing it and then using the tab as a reference. Just playing through stuff is fun but you don't really progress, or perfect anything. Sight reading it seems, can become a crutch one can never free oneself of. One day I played the prelude of

Re: Montagna's lutes

Did anyone see one of their concerts performing this duets? Or maybe we could ask Crawford? I have other CDs where CY is using a plectrum. Looking at the picture again, I would think the right side player is playing the trebles (if this were that kind of song set) but I don't know why. Mayb

Re: Montagna's lutes

Marion, I do believe Crawford Yound used a plectrum on the upper parts. ed At 06:19 PM 3/29/2005 -0800, Dr. Marion Ceruti wrote: >Dear Sean, > >Thank you for posting these pictures. The same picture is on the cover of >Karl-Ernst Schroder and Crawford Young's CD, "Amours amours amours" >released

Re: Montagna's lutes

And another thing: How come none of these artists get the fret proportions right, even though they seem to get everything else right? By the way, the most accurate rendering of fret spacing I've ever seen is in a print by M.C. Escher, not exactly a contemporary of the lutenists, but very math

Re: Montagna's lutes

Dear Marion and Sean: Much of the music on the Schroeder-Young recording is playable with a plectrum on one lute; the other, the tenor, usually must be played with the fingers for the music to work. I have played the treble part of a number of these pieces with a plectrum on a five-course gitt

Dear Sean, Thank you for posting these pictures. The same picture is on the cover of Karl-Ernst Schroder and Crawford Young's CD, "Amours amours amours" released in 2002 by Harmonia Mundi HMC905254. In fact two A lutes were used in this recording as well as a lute in E. If the music on the CD is a

Having lived in the 6-course world for a while now I'm very interested in the left lute in this painting by Montagna: http://www.xs4all.nl/~amarin/Page1-Pages/Image198.html http://www.xs4all.nl/~amarin/Page1-Pages/Image199.html It appears M. tried to be very realistic in the proportions, colors

Re: Woodworking question.

Without strings, it will be an excercise only for the left hand and a limited one at that. The problem with strings is that on a bus sounds might not be allowed. I know on our buses you can't play the radio. I agree that right-left hand coordination will be absent without strings and also the feel
