Dear all - can anyone help Brian with his enquiry - answers direct to him
please - Chris Goodwin
I don't know Banks' work and his arguments (yet), but unless there is a firm
evidence that these specific pieces were performed on lutes, claims that
this is genuine music for a lute ensemble are overstatements. Indeed, this
music *could* have been performed by such an ensemble but also by any
A player w/ a 5 or 6 course lute could play at least any
two single voices of a composition and would have been useful in
consort (as well as part of a duo or a soloist and would probably have
been expected to be all three).
This wouldn't be so easy playing with a plectrum, though. But

For those of you interested in playing this style of music or just
learning more about it, note that Crawford Young will be teaching a
course dedicated to it at the LSA Lute Festival this Summer in Cleveland
(25 through 30 June).

Hi there,
well, if I may spend my penny of limited experience... People tend not
to buy a 6 course Renaissance lute until they aren't much more advanced
in the Renaissance repertoire. Beginners and many other players seem to
think that an 8-course instrument will offer a broader repertoire.
Dear Michal,
It would be wise to read what Jon Banks has to say before forming an
opinion.
When one is faced with a piece, such as Roelikin's setting of De

I am looking for a made-to-measure light baroque guitar case. Do you

Until now I had a borrowed one made by Meinel Etuis but it is time

Dear Wayne and All:
My guess is that many people have an experience similar to mine: They get
a six-course lute and start playing Francesco and Spinacino and Dalza on it
(and others too numerous to mention), and would never even consider selling
the instrument after that.

This is an issue very close to my heart at the moment as I'm shopping for a

I recommend a 6-courser! The repertoire is (nearly) limitless. And
practically all the stuff is relatively good! Printing music was

An eight course Lute is perhaps the most versatile. You can play of course
the six course music, but a little tweaking with the base string you can
play most ten course music as well. It is not a perfect solution but it is
a good one for those who do not have the resources to afford the correct
Dear Stewart,
I would add that much of the music under discussion is extremely
complex rhythmically. If it is to work, it has to be played
incisively, and exactly in time. I doubt whether viols (which have a
similar range to the lute) would be as successful.
