Now finally to the correct list .... ---------- Forwarded message ----------- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Markus Lutz) To: baroque-lute@cs.dartmouth.edu (Barocklauten-Liste), [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Dear Martin, now again to you and the net. Your fwd hasn't made it way to the lute-net, as attachments are deleted. This teasing was no problem for me, as I surely caught the point ;-). Indeed today we (at least I) are very used to read from sight. As I do read very easily I never tried to play by heart. Memorizing never was a favorite of mine.
