Sorry--didn't mean to imply just strumming changes! As David says, this is
Renaissance music and the linear movement should dictate how to voice the
chords.

This is entirely a matter of taste, but for mid renaissance music I
prefer to have voices of some sort present, even if they are in block
form. The phalese airs print from the same time has a very good mix
of accompaniments ranging from very simple to those of a slightly
northern flavor. If you
I recently recorded one of Ortiz's pieces for a podcast--violone soloist,
virginal and bass lute accompany (not theorbo, as the intro says.) Simple
chords, occasional filler--let the soloist shine; in most of these pieces,
he/she has so much going on, you really do not want to add too much more

There are earlier recordings of Lachrimae
My favorite is the soundtrack to the Tower of London, 1939, with Boris Karloff.
I would assume, though it is not credited, that
they used the transcription of Philip Heseltine

Those pieces can accomodate two inner parts well.
But you can also play just the chords. The madrigal style is more
persuasive if not too busy.

Hello, friends!
Please forgive the mass mailing. I'm trying to get the word out about
three terrific workshops where I'll be teaching
lute/theorbo/guitar/continuo this summer.
Please do me the favor of forwarding this to anybody who might want to

Hi Guys,
Some more vintage lute recordings for you - as with last time, do check your
local laws before downloading these files, which are out of copyright here
in the UK.
First, something of a premier recording - the first ever recording of
Dowland's Lachrimae from 1957. No lute featured (
Dear Simon,
The first half of the Ortiz book describes how to work w/ adding more
notes to a simple line so you may have everything you need there. As
the lutenist you can add more chords to strengthen the rhythm as you
like.
A good source for seeing how to break up those chords and add
I have a question for our continuo experts on the list. I'm going to
accompany some of Ortiz's "Recercadas sobre un canto llano" on the lute.
For those who don't know the pieces, they consist of a simple bass line
in long notes of equal value (the canto llano), above which a melody

I've used Michelangelo Galilei's toccatas in solemn moments during
services. I'd avoid anything by Gershwin or the Rolling Stones.

The Lute Society (UK) has published 58 Very Easy Pieces for
Renaissance Lute, graded in difficulty, along with a recording of the
pieces by Jacob Heringperson called "Blame Not My Lute." You can get
both from the Lute Society website for ten pounds (less if you're a
member) and sample or buy the C

I've done many, many gigs of this sort. Fortunately, I've found that modern
folk are so used to loud, noisy music with electric instruments and drums
(...those darn kids today!...back in my day...) that most people will consider
nearly anything played on a solo lute to sound "relaxin
I have done this countless times, and it works out fine. As David
suggested,. Vallet is a great choice. If you are playing a renaissance
lute, I suggest fantasias by almost anyone.

If you are joining VOBs make sure you do not drop any frames between VOBs.
For me, the safest and lossless way to join VOBs is to connect the
files using a file combining program or just the DOS combine command.
That way, the original MPEG is not resampled at any point. Many NLEs

I have been asked to play my lute during part of the Communion Service
as the congregation come to the Altar to receive The Eucharist. I am a
bit dubious about this as I fear it might detract from the service,
apart from any tuning difficulties. I would be grateful for any comments
and advice
