Dear lute friends,
As you most probably know, the "Burwell Lute Tutor" is a
manuscript
tutor for the baroque lute. The manuscript is Miss Mary Burwell's
(born
1654) copy of a method written by an Englishman (the name Mr.
John
Rogers has been suggested) who claims was himself a pupil of the
French
Ennemond Gaultier. The teacher corrected Miss Burwell's copy of
the
text and filled in the music examples. Both the "Burwell Lute
Tutor"
and "The Lute Made Easie" (by Thomas Mace, London, 1676) are two
very
authentic and surviving sources of its time teaching in great
detail
from A to Z how to play the baroque lute.
For teaching practice, the manuscript contains examples of
French-style
lute pieces, mainly fragments and sometimes individual bars only.
The
music examples are chaotic, with both teacher and pupil
contributing to
mistakes Some of the pieces are known, and concordances exist in
other
lute manuscripts, other pieces are new and unique.
Over the last months or so I tried playing nearly all pieces
after I
identified (if possible), corrected and completed majority of the
pieces from the Burwell Lute Tutor.
Please find here the link to my compilation of baroque lute
pieces from
the "Burwell Lute Tutor":
