Peter was also kind enough to give me a copy of his article for posting on the Renaissance Cittern Page (http://www.theaterofmusic.com/cittern/articles/wood.html). I haven't a copy of the one printed in the Lute Society Quarterly, but I believe it is all the same, including the handouts and illustrations.
This has been one of many new updates to the cittern site. If you haven't already, please check it out. I will soon be posting a brand-new artwork page (I have probably more than quadrupled the number of sources and images) as well as updating the new instruments section with pictures of many of Peter Forrester's instruments (courtesy of Peter, himself). Stay tuned, ;-) -Andrew At 05:12 AM 11/6/2005, doc rossi wrote: >there is an interesting article by peter forrester in the october >2005 issue of lute news, the (british) lute society magazine (no. >75). if you don't get it, write to chris goodwin: [EMAIL PROTECTED], or >visit the site for more info: www.lutesoc.co.uk > >the article is a transcription of a talk peter gave in january 2004 >and deals with wire, construction and other things related to the >earliest citterns. > >doc rossi >www.magnatune.com/artists/docrossi >[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > >To get on or off this list see list information at >http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html
