When the famous musicologist Donald Jay Grout came to my college, he responded
to an homologous question (should Bach be played on a piano, perhaps ???), If
it is worth doing, it is worth doing badly. Ray Nurse said we havent had an
early music revival, weve had an early instrument revival.
It would be interesting to know when Robert Spencer made his comment.
Some years ago now, I suspect, and many aspects of early music
performance have probably evolved positively since.
If a good quality lute in the right hands is played in an appropriate
acoustic (here in France we are lucky t
But I agree with you wholeheartedly! But then, I like to read Le Morte
d'Arthur in its original; not everyone's cup of tea, you'd have to
agree.
One of my pet peeves is that everybody in early music is a specialist

Dear David,
I think that it is very unfortunate that early pronunciation has not
become a more essential part of performing practice. If one looks at the
work carried out by David Crystal and his son Ben, notably for the Globe

About your recording.
I think the Vivat he sang like English pronunciation of Latin.
Liza like modern English, because I suppose he sang the rest of the
song in modern English too.
(I've recorded it too. Should check what the singer did, maybe ...)

Arigato go zai mas, David-san,
In Rooley's The Consort of Musicke recording, David Thomas sang "Vivat" like
"va;y-vat" (similar to syllables of "Wyatt")
"Eliza" like "eh-lie-zah". Sounds quite modern-english-english to my ears
and I was wondering why he sang like that.

Dear Tomoko,
Try GoogleTranslate. Put your fraze in the space on the left, choose a language
you think it is in, and press the little speaker underneath. Then keep changing
languages until you think it rhymes best with ‘Ave María’. Stupid but works ;)

I have looked into the facsimiles of both the Este and Ravenscroft
psalters. Este has 30 odd pieces by Dowland; Psalm 100 is not clearly
