Didn't JW also record on a period guitar? I think I have a record when he
plays concerts for guitar and orchestra on a period guitar (and also saw
this performance live).

Better not! I don't think Weiss works well on a guitar. It's too idiomatic
to the lute. There is a peculiar series of recordings by a certain
Schneeweiss
(http://www.sozialprojekte.de/klassische-musik/artist-Kurt+Schneewei%DF)
who recorded much music of Weiss on guitar ("modified") ..

Dear Mike;
I haven't had a problem. I also play viola da gamba which has a
pretty flat bridge compared to a cello. Maybe that's the reason. I think the
canter of the bridge is determined by the shape of the fingerboard. My 5
string was originally built as a 5 string about 160 years ago, i
Oh - and that's why they copied the music into manuscripts?
Fantasias, passacalias and some others were improvised and seldom notated
but I would have several sources telling that they played from scores, even
their own music (take a look at Marpurg for example).
The idea of playing from memo
does the number of tones per second is similar to quality?
I always thought this could only be quantity ... curious ...

Thank you Arto.
The 1584 book is paginated running to page no. 182. Pages 120 through to 175
contain only tablature with no text other than titles of the pieces: - page 155
has an intabulation of 'Non ved'il mondo'; - page 162 of 'Caronte' and 'Mentre
di poggia'. In short, as you suggest,

This is very true, but it doesn't mean that it is exclusive to the
romantic period. In descriptions of masques there were places where
12 lutenists popped out of trees and played or other such spectacles.

Yes. Horribly unstable, but good for a 'spin' a la ZZ Top. :-)

Just because I like logic: how do you know they are cheesy if you have never
opened one of them? 8^)

In some parts of the world, apparently. The Post-Colonial Cultural Theory
commands that such "opinions" be given equal consideration, but I, for one,

Hello,
I'm really not sure if the guitar isn't able to play Weiss.
Of course you'll have to change the bass lines and maybe other things too, but
I think if someone takes care of the music and it's idiom, there is no problem.
Schneeweiss doesn't count as any proof, as he really plays what he want
Dear Markus,
I do believe that guitarist's are probably capable of hitting all the
notes, exception being the bass line.
The difference seems to be the relaxed phrasing, and the ability to
sustain anything longer than a millisecond.
The lute or 13 string guitar has a rich sympathetic overto
I do think what Lorimar is doing is a good thing in general, as it might
expose the mainstream guitar world to more than just the greatest hits.
Perhaps some will even consider more strings, and we all know, bigger is
better.

Our friend Per Kjetil made marvelous transcriptions for the 8-string guitar
and recorded them. Maybe he's still on the list and permits to put an example
piece on the net.

In terms of Weiss on guitar, I would like to recommend a fine new recording
of Weiss, on guitar, by my baroque lute duet partner, Paul Berget. This
new recording is on 11 course guitar, a new invention by Terry
