Just an idea, but how about different colored inks?

MOpheeExcellent point, which tells why there is no liklihood of modern
composers using tablature.
RadSOf course, it is almost impossible
Dear Matanya,
Yes, I do seem to be contradicting myself, so perhaps I may
elaborate a little. I think a lot depends on how much experience one
has with any particular notation. For a complete beginner tablature
will be easier to read, because it by-passes the concept of pitch
and goes straight to

As you know from previous messages, I believe lute players should be
familiar with both staff notation and tablature. The question is,
which
should a beginner learn first? That's the $64,000 question. :-)
Stewart, as usual you make some very good points. I agree

Dear Tom,
Here's a simple example. (You will need a monospaced font like

How would you write 3 versus 5 in tablature?
I couldn't resist :)
Of course, it is almost impossible to play 3 versus 5 on a lute or guitar.

The example does not show an advantage of tab over staff notation... you
could just as easily write the bar in staff notation as 4 quarter notes
(expecting the player to figure out which notes to hold), with no less
simplicity nor less accuracy than the tab. In fact, such simplifications
are

You can hear Doctor Oakroot at:
Thanks for the plug Wayne. Don't think there's any 3 on 5 in that one.
(And lute folks probably won't like it anyway).
