rapidly building up an online resource of many thousands of out-of-copyright

Dear Arthur:
I'm glad to know that I got your attention. Yes, i was mainly describing the
fantasia from Bottegari + Chilesotti's ms. This misattribution was by Chiesa,
who seemed to feel strongly that it was Francesco's. I don't.
There are several other pieces that it seems were deliber
You cannot argue with a Guitar player about fixed metal frets, especially if
their only exposure to the Lute is at a distance. They have to have first
hand experience with gut frets and the fineness of the sound before they
start to grasp the significance of them. Don't even try discussing

The other issue is tuning. Even with equal temperment, there will be
times when the 1st course needs a slightly different fret position

I do use markers, as I play many different sized instruments. I recall
working with a lutenist about 8 years, ago, practicing duets. This
particular lutenist plays many different kinds of lutes, and in one piece,
he was not hitting the right note up on the 8th or 9th fret. I sugg

For what it's worth...
Perhaps the difference is that we lutenists daren't take our eyes off the
tablature, and so we have to find our way about the neck of our instrument
by touch, not sight. Having said that, I think I might just stick something
