Dear Bill, Monica, List It's very interesting that Los Ympossibles from CS4 are virtually the same piece as today's La Lloroncita from veracruz. I think it's also very much alike a song from argentina, but right now I can't remember the name of it... It's also interesting that los ymposibles has a

I'm not sure what I did! It think it was mostly index, but maybe the odd thumb-up here and there - not thumb down, as you suggest. But I really didn't put any thought into it, so. Rob www.rmguitar.info _ From: Martyn Hodgson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 14 January 2008 1

[VIHUELA] 'Strumming' Foscarini (and others) - even more agreement

2008-01-14 Thread Martyn Hodgson
I've spent quite a few hours exploring possible strumming methods for these sort of passages (ie where one is strumming low courses and/or mid courses without sounding others) and now think that a sort of combination pluck and strum is the best solution (rather than the exclusive index strum

Well - we are talking about Foscarini not Bartolotti. In his instructions at the beginning of Book 1 Bartolotti does say that you should hold the chord in place whilst you play the intervening notes but it is not entirely clear whether you should always repeat the chord with the passing note.

Monica, why do you think that the single notes are not played as a chord with any of the preceding note(s)? I realise this is your position but I still don't understand why you hold it: as someone else has said, if F had wanted this there's a perfectly clear way to intabulate it. As you know I
