[LUTE] Re: Zarlino, Giuseppe - Quatre livres ou parties des Institutions harmoniques

Demonstrably, Zamboni was old tuning. But Zarlino in mid 17th means, they thought that his music theory was still highly applicable. I thought they had abandoned hexachords and modes and musica ficta by then. So what happened to the musica nova. Isn't it all a bit anachronistic?

[LUTE] Synthetic frets

Dear list, We have received the brand new [1]synthetic frets made by Aquila Corde (LS). Are there any experiences with them so far? Any special advice about how to tie them? I am going to try them quite soon, but it could be great to hear your feedback. Here you can see

[LUTE] Re: A440?

String tension is directly proportional to the square of the frequency. In this case, to increase the pitch from 430 to 440 results in an increase in tension of (440/430)squared ie around 4.7%. Thus if your theorbo is strung at a general nominal tension of, say, 4Kg per string the

[LUTE] Re: A440?

Lute List, Thanks for all of your advice on the Lully and A440 . . . I knew there would be lots of opinions out there and sound practical advice. I'm leaning towards tuning the theorbo to G; I'm familiar with the tuning and think it should fit fairly well. I might also tune up to

[LUTE] Re: A440?

If your theorbo is tuned to A 430 that is in fact the same as playing G when tuned at 480 hz (more or less) , so if you play theorbo in G, which should be easy enough, all you have to do is tune down to G @ A 440. if however A is a better key to realize the continuo for this Gig,

Hi has anyone looked at the lute tablature in this work (in french), or even read the whole thing? [1]http://gallica.bnf.fr/ark:/12148/btv1b9063327k G. -- References 1. http://gallica.bnf.fr/ark:/12148/btv1b9063327k To get on or off this list see list information at

The tablature is just the transcription of the notated parts, note for note, maybe an interesting insight into compositional processes of the time (mid-17th century)... Jean-Marie -- > Hi > has anyone looked at the lute tablature in this work (in french), or > even read

[LUTE] Re: Zarlino, Giuseppe - Quatre livres ou parties des Institutions harmoniques

This was first published in 1558. The original has no tabl. so these are examples... The person who copied (and maybe also translated) the italian print did a monumental work! G. On Tue, Aug 8, 2017 at 9:18 PM, Jean-Marie Poirier <[1]jmpoiri...@wanadoo.fr> wrote: The

[LUTE] Re: Zarlino, Giuseppe - Quatre livres ou parties des Institutions harmoniques

Yes but it certainly shows how lutenists could transpose music to their instrument and this French translation is 17th century, one century after Zarlino published his treatise. Interesting stuff ! Best, Jean-Marie > Le 8 août 2017 à 21:24, G. C. a écrit : > > This was

[LUTE] Re: Zarlino, Giuseppe - Quatre livres ou parties des Institutions harmoniques

What baffles me is what a baroque tablature is doing, applied on a renaissance tuning and a french translation of Zarlino in anno 1654 a 100 years after pub. I thought everyone had gone over to the other side by then! :) G. On Tue, Aug 8, 2017 at 10:10 PM, Jean-Marie Poirier
