Hi Brad (et alli),

I'm working on a new CD now - it will be a recital CD rather than the  
works of one composer and will include duets as well as solos.  I  
wish other people would take the instrument seriously and record,  
too.  It does have a lovely sound and is quite versatile.  I'm in the  
process of moving and so am taking advantage of an empty living  
room.  Lots of echo! Not quite "Surf Cittern", but Dick Dale would  
dig it, I think.  I'll be posting a sample or two on the Music in  
Time site soon.

I've been a little side-tracked by my new Christian Sander  
Waldzither.  What a beautiful instrument.  One of these days I'll get  
a digital camera and post some photos.

If anyone is interested in playing the 18th-century cittern (or  
cetra, as I prefer to call it) and needs music and/or a little  
historically informed instruction,  I've just received a new printing  
of the tutor I put together.  There are also several items at Music  
in Time.  Thanks to Rob for the new tab he's just posted.

Doc
