Hi Bill,
I don't think it's the rareness which attracts us. I think the lute has
a very special sound and a fantastic repertoire which raises interest.
Most of us may have come into contact with that repertoire over the
guitar. Others may have listend
Instruments: Organ, bass, LUTE, viola, sax, bongos, conga, cello,
drums, horns and gongs.
Some interesting combinations!!(Lute - Brassy music??!!)
Yes, in the good old Greek times lutes were made of turtles or,
in Sparta, of steel (hence the expression axe for more solid
instruments). ;-)
Dear Herbert,
If it helps, use it. You make the point that there are two ways for
guitarists to think of lute chords in terms of what they already
know from the guitar:
1) Lute chords are the same as on the guitar, except you have to
remember to raise the note on the 3rd course by a semitone:

Dear Stewart,
After about half a year at the lute, I am very much inclined to agree with
your suggestion that one forget the guitar when learning/playing the lute.

Bill,
You are talking to someone who has made extensive efforts to make lute
music more accessible to more people. As long as popularize means
spreading the word and sharing the goodies with a larger number of fellow
primates, it's all for the better. If popularize means debase for the

A laudable goal, but your market research expenses must be astronomical.

Perhaps some of you will like a little piece I have been working on for a

I know Ralf for a while now.
I first met him when he gave a seminar for jazz on the classical
guitar (on which I gooved along) but even then he was very interested
in the lute.
