Vance,
The text appears to be in the Fraktur format (thanks Matt, now I get to
sound educated). The notes are unusual, I'd go through them but it is time
for bed. But the five or six note run up and down the partial scale isn't
anything I've seen, particularly as it seems one word is held through
Dear Arthur,
Thank you very much for this. I presently live in Bas Armagnac, with the
nearest city being Mont-de-Marsan: not a central repository of cultural
wealth. I can take a 2 hour drive to a university, Toulouse most likely, but
I will try the library in Mont-de-Marsan first and see if they
Dear Arthur,
This book was mentioned in June and July 2002 on the French lute
list. Roger Traversac informed the list that there were over 200
mint condition copies of Heartz's edition of Attaingnant's lute
music still in stock in a shop in Paris. I bought myself a copy
staright away, and I
I contacted the seller about the book and he emailed me 2 pictures from inside the
book.

Dear Stewart,
I must have missed the earlier message. I would second Stewart's
recommendation. Daniel Heartz is a brilliant musicologist and always has
crunchy thing to say about the music he studies. He also authored an
important bibliography of the music published by Pierre Attaiingnant.
Hi list,
I've finally added some short examples from the marvelous CD by
Meinhard Gerlach and Diane Severson (Silence) on my homepage.
You find them on the order form for the CD.

Stewart,
I think there's enough detail in the globe to the left of the lute to see
that a number of countries are color coded. I think it may even have been
related to religion.
Can't be religion, all of Europe from England through Russia and

You're right, of course. One might still wonder what the delineation is,
though. Note that most civilized countries are colored in. But Ireland,
Sweden, Norway and Sicily are not. And would that be Iceland on the red
Arctic Circle? It is colored in.
This is only a broad guess so
Hi Gang,
I tried for the first time to write a PC piece on Stringwalker, and it came
out like this. It's easily playable on an electric guitar, not quite so
easily on lute... Can someone tell me where this chord sequence comes from?
It also seems to look for variations ;)

Bob Clair was asking about the designer of the Reflexe series cover art.
The journal Early Music had a retrospective article on the EMI Reflexe
series of recordings in a recent number, Vol. XXXI No. 1, written by Fabrice
Fitch. He comments on the cover artworks:

close up shots don't show it. Any guesses as to what the symbolism of
that is?

Vance,
It is my understanding that the Lute's music was at some point considered
un-Godly and therefore forbidden in some circles, especially the extremely
contrapuntal compositions.
So, the road to hell is not only paved w/ good intentions, the radio
stations are better too?
I'll be
hi folks!
Beate Dittmann finally allowed me to add her CDs on my webpage.
Those who may not know her - she is surely the finest player of early
german lute music. Her CD Wol kumbt der May shouldn't be missed in
any CD-Collection.
Best wishes

Sean:
That sounds believable and probably closer to the truth than my explanation.
That being said the issue still remains true, in some degree or another the
demise of the Lute was in part to the increasing influence of the Protestant
religions who viewed the Lute as a vanity. That too is odd
Sean:
We have seen this same kind of thing with every generation. Elvis was
supposed to corrupt the youth of America, Rock and Roll etc. Earlier in the
Century Stravinsky had to leave the concert house through a rest room window
after the premier performance of the Rites of Spring, and

Remember Bosch's tryptich of Heaven, Purgatory and Hell (pre-Luther) was
painted w/ a lute and a hurdy gurdy in Hell--maybe warrented. Each
