Let's say:
Bass line and chords played by guitars or keyboards.
I hate to see Stage Pianos excluded from the continuo gig :)

If one is trying to explain the concept of continuo on theorbo to a
non-early music person, would it be safe to compare it to the rhythm
guitarist in a modern band?

Dear Jorg,
I play continuo on theorbo and other plucked instruments and also
employ the mandora/gallichon in nominal D tuning with a string length
of 75cm (and also the large calchedon in nominal A tuning with sl 98cm)
where the instrument is appropriate - ie mostly second to last qu
I do on occasion. I have a huge 10-course in D 78cm or something
similar). Sometimes I chicken out and play transposed parts. If the
D-lute stint is a bit longer I bite the bullet and play at pitch. Not
so difficult (but I play easy continuo on it: early Italian music), no
complicate
Dear all,
I have got a big Mandora in D (renaissance tuning, NOT d-minor, NOT theorobo).
I may try to play some continuo with it as it’s quite sonorous.
Has anybody experiences with this?
Thanks
Jörg
