No - I just got a message "web page cannot be found".
Time for bed now. Maybe better luck tomorrow.

The link probably does work but you have to let the whole file download
before it can be played. So click on it and wait a few minutes (if you
can be bothered!)
I uploaded a large wav file because the mp3 version was far too quiet
for some unknown reason.

In his catalogue Gerard Rebours says that there are "nombreuses
differences". I don't have the theorbo version but I am sure he is
right.
S/he (probably he I'm afraid) had probably heard someone else playing
it and was writing it out by ear.
I don't think it needs an extravert performance. The little guitar is
a delicate introspective instrument. I always think that the theorbo
sounds very "in your face". Too much heavy metal bass.

I couldn't resist a quick try at it:

The fifth and sixth couplets (?) seem quite different from the
lute/theorbo. I wonder if the scribe was arranging it as s/he wrote
it out?
Listening to the massive, booming performances of this piece on
youtube, on monster lute/theorbo makes the little guitar seem a bit
feeble. Maybe it need a very extravert performance on a loud guitar.

It has also been recorded by Rafael Andia. But I don't really like
the
recording...

Dear Arto
There is a guitar version of this chaconne - in D minor - in the
huge
manuscript F.Pn Res. F. 844. It is on p.237.
Someone - Stuart I think - pointed out that you can download an
image of
the
whole of this ms. from the Bib. Nat. site.
Regards
Monica

Dear "flat back" lutenists,
My try on de Visee's Chaconne in A minor is - as I told - is in
[14]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RqHHPeLMNYU&feature=youtu.be
[15]http://vimeo.com/53172045
As I said, there is the original(?) theorbo version of this d-minor
lute
version, but I have a strong memory image that there is also a
version
to the 5 course guitar of this Chaconne. Is it there? Monica? Other
specialists?
best,
Arto
