Is that by Thurston Dart? I've got a Xerox, but I don't know where it came from. He uses piano fingerings in his transcriptions, i.e. the thumb is 1, index is 2. It doesn't matter to us though because all the tab is there. My favorite admonition in there is: "It is a disgrace for the lute to play country dances, songs or corants of violins, as likewise to play tricks with one's lute - to play behind the back, etc." I've got to stop doing that! :-) -- Ed Durbrow Saitama, Japan http://www9.plala.or.jp/edurbrow/ To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html
