Also to mention belatedly (been away for 3 weeks) Kim Heindel's Gasparo
recording from 1989 of Weiss, Dowland, Bach, Duphly and Scarlatti on a
Martin Lautenwerk.

Dear All,
I've been away all weekend and have just caught up on the six course
discussion. Since we're on this topic I'd like to ask if anyone
prefers a six course with a wider neck. I have one of Dan Larson's
Ricercare six course lutes. It's a lovely instrument with good sound
and response.
Hello Luca,
on the baroque list I sent my answer to Mathias.
I wanted to post it also on the lute list, but it seems as if the message
hasn't come through (possibly because cross-posting isn't allowed).
So here again:
the manuscript is in the meantime in the Bibliotheque Nationale de Paris,

Dear Mathias and CW,
Madame Thibault had another Weiss manuscript, Fantaisies et Preludes composees
par Mr. Weiss a Rome. Did it also go to the Bibliotheque national in Paris?
If so, what is the call number? I cannot find it in either the on-line or
printed Meier Sources manuscrits en
Either we accept Jon Banks' arguments (as I do), and are happy to
refer to these pieces as music for lute trio or lute consort, or
we can opt for Michal's more cautious playable on lutes. Either
way, the music is there to be enjoyed by us all, and as Sean says,
it is great fun.
Best wishes,
But what would the large bass
instruments have been like? Do any survive from this period?
None from the (late) fifteenth-century. However, as far as I know, surviving
Maler lutes are bass instruments, the earliest from 1520s (? Someone correct
me if I'm wrong).

Dear Stuart,
From our modest first forays into reading this rep. I've found that
different size lutes help in the following ways:
a) They put the 'voice range' of the line in the center of the lute
fingerboard. When we consider that they probably didn't have roped or
great strings for the
The Lautenweltadressbuch lists seven lutes attributed to Laux Maler
that have body dimensions available:
WidthDepthDate/Rebuilder
33.5 cm ca. 1520
29.7 ca. 15 before 1550
30.6 15.8 Widhalm 1761
29.3 ca. 15.8
My bass lute is only 68cm in string length. I put beefier strings on
it (ie, 6th course = ~1.62mm gut), tune it to D and it works fine.
Btw, a 6c A-lute is very nice but if you really want to enjoy a
sustaining voice, go long.
