Dear Brad,
You can hear that tinny, brittle, distorted sound if you put your ear
right up to the ribs of the lute as you play it. (It's easier with a
lute than a theorbo.) A mike placed very close to the instrument will
capture some of that tinny sound.
If you listen to a lute or theorbo from

The problems I've found in playing consort music (on lute) with recorders, is
that commonly recorders are sounding an octave above written pitch. If the
lute is on a top or middle line, recorders playing a lower line may be sounding
above the lute; not good for the harmony. Consequently, I'm

Thank you for this. Re the first link, could you tell me if the lute part
in the volumes is given in tablature? It would be really helpful to see a

Lute parts are in French TAB notated in Fronimo. The recorder parts are

Recipe for a really super natural lute sound:
1) Use 20-50 prohibitively expensive mics.
2) Place them at least 415 feet away from the instrument.
3) Arrange them in an incredibly intricate array involving rigging from

Dear Mathias:
The only music explicitly written for the recorder and the D-minor-lute,
that I'm aware of, is a suite per flauto dolce e liuto by E.G. Baron.
Interesting! Is this suite available somewhere? Perhaps even on-line in
the Net?
Best,
Arto

Thanks Allan,
That was great! I just love this list...

Dear Sean,
The handwriting is NOT the same! Jacob was writing when in some quarters
the mss were thought to have the same scribe. The person who made that
claim realized in 1999 that he was mistaken, and has since corrected
himself.
The manuscript in question, by the way, is Ms II.C.23 in
