[LUTE] lute plans

2013-10-12 Thread nigelsolomon
Does anyone know where I might find plans to build an alto lute (in A, around 54 cm string length). Surfing the net there seem to be quite a few for 60 cm lutes but not for any small instruments. I don't think my skills would be up to scaling larger plans down. Any ideas? Nigel To get on

Hi Nigel, I don't know of any plans for such a lute, but scaling things is not difficult with a photocopier! You just need to remember to redraw the string band (width across the strings at nut and bridge) and consequently neck widths and pegbox, otherwise they will be too small. For a 6c

Perhaps Dominic will reply in detail - but he does say in his original message that it is his own extended version and you wont find a lot of it in Sanz. The strummed bit at the beginning is the standard chord sequence for the Marionas i.e. C major G major A minor F major G major C major.

[LUTE] BWV 1025

2013-10-12 Thread G. Crona
Hi guys I've always been fascinated by BWV 1025 and think that this is where Bach (late in his careeer) gets to shine as a violinist in the serendipid meeting between him and Weiss. Any chance of the lute part being available digitally anywhere? Best regards G. To get on or off this

Two of my students are playing the G major concerto for two mandolins. They'd like me to play continuo on my archlute. Does anyone know where a bass part (with or without figures) could be obtained? Thanks, Joseph Mayes To get on or off this list see list information at
