(! I mean different from the later five-course guitar playing alfabeto -> mixed style, not the four-course guitar)Looks really interesting. I've been playing through some of it on a lute - as far as Tant que Vivray. (I used to like the lute setting in Attaignant). Right away it seems a different world from the lute - and even further from the guitar.Dear list members,For those of you who are interested in the vihuela, I have just published a new bilingual internet version of my 2003 book "Tañer vihuela según Juan Bermudo". It is a method of learning to play the vihuela based on the pedagogical principles elaborated by Bermudo in his 1555 Declaración de instrumentos musicales.You can find it at: http://www.vihuelagriffiths.com/JohnGriffiths/Vihuela_playing.htmlIt comprises a selection of twenty pieces following the order suggested by Bermudo. For each piece, I have included the original tablature, plus analytical transcriptions for instruments in G (lutes and vihuelas) and for instruments in E (especially for modern guitarists). The material can be used for individual study or for group learning.All the music, tablature and transcriptions, is in downloadable pdf format. I hope you will find it useful.Good wishes, John Griffiths
I got the Lute Society's edition of Osborn fb7 recently - really easy lute music and it's just so different from this ultra sober world! Those two-part pieces which are the beginning seem like something you would only attempt after you'd got a really solid basis from playing simpler pieces.StuartTo get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html ------------------------------------------------------------------------ No virus found in this incoming message.Checked by AVG - www.avg.com Version: 8.5.432 / Virus Database: 270.14.126/2601 - Release Date: 01/05/10 07:35:00------------------------------------------------------------------------ No virus found in this incoming message.Checked by AVG - www.avg.com Version: 8.5.432 / Virus Database: 270.14.126/2601 - Release Date: 01/05/10 07:35:00
