Does anyone know of lute or consort setting (or other setting?) of a
Green's Almain?
Yesterday I came across this mysterious piece of cittern tablature in
my music stack. I noticed it was in Fronimo format, so I searched my
computer and also found that I had the file! Either I entered it in

every now and then you see an oud up for auction on
ebay with holes in the back which indicate that it had
been screwed to the wall of some resturant with a
middle-eastern theme - (gasp) - what a horrible thing
to do to an instrument.
i know people sometimes hang their guitars on the wall

Only if you're a museum curator in charge of the instrument collection.
Otherwise, if you want yourself and your friends to relish the physical
beauty of an instrument, the proper way is to take it out of the case and

Dear Lutenists:
My Bass Renaissance Lute is arriving soon from Brazil and Luciano Faria.
I have a golden wooden flower medallion with a hook that I am going to hang on
the wall and I am going to tie a velvet tie around the throat of the Lute and
hang the Lute flat
Thanks for the variously cute and patronizing replies. i play my lute
daily, but in a tiny room where other musical instruments are scattered
here and there. i hoped to get it off the stand where it might get
knocked over. i have a mandolin i also play regularly and it's on the
wall, but,

only time I have had dryness related problems with my lutes. Yes, the
instruments took up less space, and were very impressing in appearance in
my studio, but as others stated, they then collect dust, and also get

Dear David:
The 6 c. Lute you hang on the wall - did you purchase the Lute secondhand
or did it develop the crack over time having been hung on the wall. With
guitars a crack is not the end of the world, it does not affect the sound, mind
you it is not the
I take lessons from Chris Henriksen in Boston, and all his lutes (and his
wife's viols) are hanging on the walls of the music room. There's no way
they all could be put in cases -- you'd need a room just for the cases.
This room is de/humidified, and the instruments are hanging against
tapestries
