At his Boston MFA lecture Peter Kyvelos (mentioned on Mike's Oud page) said rosettes were usually out-sourced. Here's more on Peter: http://www.nea.gov/honors/heritage/Heritage01/Kyvelos.html http://www.nea.gov/honors/heritage/Heritage01/Kyvelos2.html The museum's recently purchased oud was

Bill, While the outsourcing of rose cutting is certainly arguable as an option for the historical maker, the design of the rose had more to do with the period and attendant style than the maker himself. Numerous variations on the knot of Leonardo, Celtic themes in medieval and early renaissance

Chris: This is a small fragment of a significantly longer villancico that might have been familiar to at least some potential purchasers of Valderrábano's book. The Cancionero de Elvas contains a slightly longer setting with different music from that in Valderrábano. Despososse tu amiga, Gil

Doulce Memoire performed last night in San Diego for the San Diego Early Music Society. Fabulous performance, complete with Renaissance dancing, though I'd have loved to hear more solo lute. The lutenist plays with a pick/plectrum. My line of sight was bad for getting a good look at the
