In the Milleran manuscript, Francois Mouton transcribed a good number of relatively easy Lully dances for his pupil, Ph. Milleran. It's very nice Baroque dance music, easy to listen and a fantastic start for improvisation.
:-) ------Messaggio originale------ Da: David van Ooijen Mittente:[email protected] A:Lute List Oggetto: [LUTE] background music Inviato: 16 Ago 2010 20:16 All Coming Saturday I am to play for two hours during a dinner. The request was for early-Baroque dance music, but I think that can be interpreted as anything between 1500 and 1700 of a lively nature. I'll bring a pile of music, so no fear of silence - and I can improvise music of a lively nature for hours on end - but could people with some experience in this sort of thing tell me what they usually play? Ideally I'd just put one or two books on my music stand and play through these. I'll now walk to my music shelves and see with what sort of one-stop solution I can come up with, but I'm sure some of you will be even faster. ;-) David - lively by nature -- ******************************* David van Ooijen [email protected] www.davidvanooijen.nl ******************************* To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html Luca http://liuti.manassero.net
