I believe that Douglas Alton Smith (author of A History of the Lute from Antiquity to the Renaissance) also plays banjo. Gustav Leonhardt played the banjo? -- that's a surprise!

One more contribution by Rob, available form TREE EDITION Francesco Geminiani (1687-1762) The Art of Playing the Guitar or Cittra (Edinburgh, 1760) Introduction by Rob MacKillop. 35.- Euros Facsimile edition of this important publication for the 18th-century wire-strung guittar or cittern, or English Guitar, with unison violin, and a continuo line for keyboard and cello. The cello part sometimes plays an independent line, with chords and counterpoint. Geminiani was keen to develop the guittar beyond C Major, presenting short suites of pieces in C, Cm, D, Dm, E, Em, F, Fm, G, Gm and A. The guittar part is in numerical tablature, much like modern guitar tab.

Robby Faverey is an ace classical guitarist and baroque lute player with whom I have had the privilege to study. He is also playing South American folk instruments and old style gut strung banjo. He has also played the Sarod. He has made his own cello banjo's and enjoys playing the Bach cello suites on them. More recently he has turned his attention to the viol. Another multi-instrumentalist pur sang.
