Dear lutenists, I played an anonymous Lully theorbo arr to the tubes, called "Air de Galateé". The piece quite probably comes from Lully's "Acis et Galatee", 1686. The arr is from French ms. Res-1106, Bibl. National, Paris.
I could find a page dedicated to a recording of the piece with short audio clips of the opera, and this arr quite probably is made of the "Premier air" of the 1st act of this opera. But I am not sure. So if anyone has the score, facsimile or modern, could you check it? My "tubes" are in http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AWAviFU6uWs and http://www.vimeo.com/6033091 And the theorbo tab original can be found at the end of my page http://www.cs.helsinki.fi/u/wikla/mus/Tiorba/deVisee/ or if you wish a direct link: http://www.cs.helsinki.fi/u/wikla/mus/Tiorba/Res1106/AirGalateeF34.pdf Thanks in advance, Arto PS I have taken Lully as my second Home God sitting side by side with Monteverdi! ;-) To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html
