Dear lutenists, ..., you know where is the delete button ... :-)

Today still more Scottish lute:

Amarillis, told her swanne, David Grieve's way

This is a simple song setting by D. Grieve. It is interesting, how the modal harmonies and melodies still creep in here and there to the otherwise quite "continental" texture.

Perhaps still some Grieve, and then maybe I dare to go to the very heavy stuff marked "Mr. McLachland's way by Mr. Beck" in Balcarres ms.?

All the best,

Arto

Also David Grieve wrote his "Tastar de corde":

Dear lutenists,

if my "flooding" hurts, just delete ... ;-)

The very unknown David Grieve in the Balcarres ms. clearly was familiar also with the central European style. Today I tried a Saraband:

Dear lutenists of both Lists,

I have been trying to understand the Scottish music to baroque lute - very interesting combination of pentatonic Celtic music and some elements French baroque lute music. One interesting difficulty has been to make my fingers believe that they really have to play the pentatonic scales; they just are _so_ used to the "normal" major and minor scales that they just want to go that way, without obeying my orders ... ;-)

My latest "Mr. Beck" of ms. Balcarres was "I serve a worthie lady, master Beck's way", to me up to now the most "hard core" Celtic piece. Below is the list of my tiny project:
