Thanks, Ron. In fact it was you who drew my attention to the connection
when I published the Marsh piece as a "piece of the month" in April 2008
with thanks for your contribution. So now we have another connected
piece - though the connection is much stronger with the CH piece, which
is clearly just a decorated version of Ness 75, whereas the Marsh piece
only starts with the same theme. This time I made a fresh recording of
Ness 75 to replace the rather unsatisfactory one from 2008.
The Marsh piece is the best of the three, by far - and thanks to Gail
Gillispie for drawing it to my attention at the LSA LuteFest in 2004.
I guess we're all addicted to polyphony on the lute, and I just love
these connections!

Hello Martin:
Very nice performances of the Francesco pieces. Some years ago on this
list, I pointed out that N 75 bears a strong resemblance to the
(unfortunately corrupt) 'Fansye' on page 235 of the Marsh ms. Has
anyone else noticed this?
Best wishes,
Ron Andrico
