Thank you Daniel and thank you Howard - I know this gesture of blessing hands quite well but it's long ago that I saw one of these films and I did not remember Nimoy making the gesture of blessing (and I have never been a Trekkie) ...
Back to music: Dear all, I am trying my hands at Albert de Rippes intavolation of Gentians "Dieu qui conduitz" a.k.a. L'Eccho. I suspect it's a bit more than I can handle but I have not given up yet. There are two descant cadences where the resolving note does not appear where one would think it would (open first course). I think the note is meant to be played on the octave string of the fourth course, second fret. It is not very convenient to do this and the sound remains rather weak (at least when I am playing) but as Rippe chose different positions for the repeats in the echo sections, which bring octave strings into play and thus a very interesting change of timbre I am at the moment of the opinion that there are no tablature letters missing. There is an edition of the music from 1562 where in the first cadence the resolving not has been set in on the first course (but not in the second cadence, where it is even more difficult for me to bring out this note on the fourth course's octave) plus there are some more changes to the music, but my impression is that they are the work of someone who either did not know how to use octaves or who was not used to octave stringing at all (or: anymore?) - at least not on the fourth course. Has anyone of you played this piece and worked his way around these things?
