[LUTE] Re: Density of Savarez KF Alliance Strings?

2017-03-15 Thread Arto Wikla

Dear Susanne

Years ago I went to a pharmacy and asked them to measure the weight of 
one KF string with their precision scale. I had by myself measured the 
length and thickness very accurately. After calculatios I got the 
density 1791 Kg/m³.


This has worked to me.

I hope this helps!

I have seen the vihuela before. It's an instrument made by Clive 
Titmuss. There is an old posting on ebay with the same picture:

[LUTE] Re: Continuo: Score vs Part; also Page-Turners

2017-03-15 Thread guy_and_liz Smith
A  melody line is handy, especially for recitative but I'd rather not deal with 
a full score. Too many page turns.

A related question: what did continuo players use back in the day, i.e., when 
did we start publishing part music as a score? That's a common practice in 
modern editions, but most of the 16th and early 17th century music that I've 
played in various wind bands was originally published as individual parts, 
often in separate books (Gesualdo being a notable exception). Most of the 
Baroque music I've played (mainly opera and orchestral continuo) was in 
(relatively) modern editions, so I'm not sure about the originals. At least 
some Baroque music that I'm familiar with (Castello, for example), was 
published as part music; continuo is just another part book.

It’s always nice to have the score, or the melodic line, in the continuo part.  
I’ve done a lot of cutting and pasting to avoid inconvenient page turns.

   When accompanying a soloist, I prefer to see his/part. Otherwise bass
   part is more convenient. But I can live with either score or part.
   Recits are the exception: I want to read these along.

Hello Edward,

There have been positive comments on this list about using a tablet and 
foot-operated page turner.
I’m thinking adopting this solution when the next iPad Pro is released, which I 
believe will be within a few weeks.

   Dear Lutenetters who play basso continuo,
   Is there a preference either way for playing from bass part or full
   score, assuming both have the same figures?
   I find that playing from a score means I can get my bearings better but
   have to flip pages more, no easy task when both hands are occupied with
   playing. That's when I sometimes wish I either played from a bass part
   to reduce page turns or had a page-turner. Does anyone use a
   page-turner?
   Curious to hear your thoughts.
