Hello Per Kjetil, the Uffenbach quote is very interesting.
Uffenbach is a very interesting person regarding lute playing - I think that most of his writings is not yet checked systematically on this. From Uffenbach there are many quotes that relate to lute players (French lutenists, Weiss and others), he met on his many voyages.
The 20 pieces for Angelique are probably in the source a) Tim mentions. Best regards Markus Per Kjetil Farstad schrieb:
Hello Gregory In addition to the information given by Markus, Blovin is also mentioned in In Eberhardt Preussner, Die musikalischen Reisen des Herrn von Uffenbach, aus einem Reisetagebuch des Johann Friedrich A. von Uffenbach aus Frankfurt a. M. 1712-1716, p. 79, we get this information: While in Italy (Rome) Uffenbach met Julien Bloivin, a competent lute player who became Uffenbach's teacher. Bloivin was French and belonged to the Pope's guard. He was one of a very few lutenists in Rome at that time (1715) and is said to have played cleanly and clearly. James Tyler, in his book "The Guitar and its Music" mentions 20 pieces for angA(c)lique, an MS (no shelf no.) belonging to Julien Blovin, now in Germany- Mainz, private library of Helmut Federhofer (Meyer 1994, p. 202) Best regards from Per Kjetil Farstad [1]www.pkfarstad.com Den 4. mars. 2009 kl. 10.58 skrev Grzegorz Joachimiak: Dear friends, Could someone tell me something about Julien Blovin or where I should find something about him. It is very important for me. Regards Gregory Joachimiak ---------------------------------------------------- ATRAKCYJNE NIERUCHOMOAe^1ACI W ZAKOPANEM !!!
