For the amateurs of new music for Baroque lute, I put together a gigue grave in the french style (with a tinge of greater Los Angeles accent, the end is very rap-sodick and you can probably skip it altogether...). I think it's ok and fun to play (there is a nice 2 octave descent in the third strain, so maybe a good exercise for thumb down). I composed it on a single strung converted archlute to D-minor tuning, so I don't know what the octaves will do to it. (the basses in the MIDI file are a little too overpowering at least with the Timidity player) Voir http://cbsr26.ucr.edu/wlkfiles/giguegrave.zip The zip file has a Django, midi and pdf version of it - at 33Kb, a bargain. Cheers, Alain
