Subject: [BAROQUE-LUTE] Johann Christian Hoffman n, 14 course
swan-neck
lute in Leipzing
Dear common wisdom,
a couple of years ago I stumbled upon the Leipzig Museum website,
planned to visit their Hoffman exhibition (but had to pass on it,
unfortunately) - then one day realized that the pictured Hoffmann
swan-neck lute they recently acquired (2012, says the YouTube
video)
mounts 14 courses: 8 fretted and 6 at the second pegbox (2x1, 6x2,
6x2).
See [1][1]http://mfm.uni-leipzig.de/dt/Forschung/hoffmannn.php:
it's
the
first instrument pictured under Johann Christian Hoffmann' section
on
the page.
It's a really strange instrument with an incredibly deep body (it
must
be uneasy to hold, or at least it looks so).
I'm sure the book about Hoffmann they sell
([2][2]http://www.hofmeister-musikverlag.com/martin-und-johann-christia
n-h
offmann.html) has all the measures about that instrument, but that
book
is really kind of expensive. The Museum's website doesn't talk
about
string length and date on this lute (I do read German and couldn't
find
the infos anywhere on the website)
The YouTube video on the same page shows a German lutenist (Sven
Schwannberger, I think) playing a swan-neck lute, which is of
course
not the original Hoffmann lute, as it shows 13 courses, as usual.
Anybody out there who has more details about it?
Thanks a lot,
Luca
