[BAROQUE-LUTE] Re: Rank Amateur Recording # 2

[Stephen Arndt]

Sterling,

You should have changed the subject line. The words "rank amateur" do not at 
all describe your playing.

Your lutes are stunningly beautiful, and you get a very nice tone from them. 
I wonder what kind of strings you are using.

Thank you for sharing your work. The music was very enjoyable.

Best regards,

Stephen Arndt

"It would really be nice to get something going with people of all 
standards
happily making contributions."

There are many hundreds of subscribers to these lute and baroque guitar
lists, but the same 20 or so names just keep contributing. Some of those 
are
very knowledgeable, some just like to moan and groan. I would like to
read/hear more from beginners, those who can only dream of playing as well
as Stephen and Stuart who have uploaded mp3s to the vihuela and baroque 
lute
lists (no matter how inadequate you apparently feel, guys, you are quite
some distance beyond beginner level).

Roman was mentioned - I know he is a bit shy about his playing, but I MUCH
PREFER his playing to the midi files.

As for putting my head above the firing line, Stuart, it is easy when your
critics are firing blanks...

So I call on all those lurkers who are even too shy to contribute emails,
let us know what you are up to, ask questions. I have many questions of my
own - the subject is too large for one person to know everything. And I 
for
one enjoy contributions from beginners and amateurs (in the best sense of
the word) than from arrogant know-all so-called professionals.
