I wasn't aware of this, but logically it's not surprising since, after all, both tablature and staff notate specific pitches within a scale, each mark denoting only one pitch. On Mon, Oct 30, 2017 at 5:21 AM, Ed Durbrow <[1]edurb...@sea.plala.or.jp> wrote: On Oct 6, 2017, at

One thing, which can't be argued though, is that the sound of the lute is SO much more appealing, than those keyboards, (possibly excepting the Lautenwerk) could ever be. :) G. On Thu, Oct 5, 2017 at 10:37 PM, Matthew Daillie <[1]dail...@club-internet.fr> wrote: --

Many early keyboard players would surely be taken aback by your comments Ron, especially those who have devoted their whole careers to renaissance and baroque music. Nobody is suggesting that Spinacino should be played on a Steinway. Keyboard intabulations of four part vocal music

Yes, indeed, IMO Segni's ricercars in lute clothing are superb! Especially recercar quinto from Da Crema's libro terzo 1546 which has concordances all over the place (Matelart, 2.11, Siena, etc.) is a real fav. And they are really quite player-friendly although purportedly

It is an interesting quest, to seek relations between keyboard and lute music. One of the most eminent organists of the day was Julio (Giulio) Segni da Modena--mentioned often in Glen Wilson CD notes. He was first organist at St. Mark's Basilica, and is said to have published

Glen Wilson always seems to produce thoroughly researched and thought-provoking liner notes for his recordings. He has done a great service to the early music community by releasing a series of CDs devoted to the unjustly neglected keyboard music of a number of renaissance composers. I also
