Hi Stewart, Martin and all
You can download facsimile image files (.jpg) of the Cherbury lute book from
Alain Veylit´s site at:
http://django.musickshandmade.com/filesrc/images/facsimiles/Cherbury/
Alain Veylit is rearranging his site. I hope downloading will not disturb
him.
Best wishes
Karl

Dear Martyn,
I've found it. The resolution isn't brilliant, but it's better than
nothing. It's at
http://musickshandmade.com/lute/facbooks/view/17
All the best,
Stewart.

Dear Denys,
That the Lord Herbert Of Cherbury facsimile is next on the Society's
facsimile publication list is good news indeed - thank you.
For those who can't wait, there was a digital download available on
the internet a couple of years ago and for the most part pretty
readable. I printed off a couple of pages to replace some of my old,
very poor, copy but recall that all pages seemed to be there. It may
still be out there but unfortunately I forgot to note the
source/address - perhaps others know?
Of course the problem with it is that there are none of the excellent
scholarly notes, concordances etc we have from you and collegues in
the
Society. So I look forward to this edition.
Martyn

Dear Arthur & All,
Further to Chris Goodwin's comments reported below I am glad to be
able
to
add
that preparatory work on the Lord Herbert Of Cherbury facsimile is at
an
advanced stage and is going well. I would hesitate to predict a
completion
date -
as with all Lute Society publications the preparation is carried out
by
dedicated individuals giving their time to the work involved, and
sometimes
there are unexpected interruptions. But it is definitely the next
planned
Lute Society facsimile, and a publication date within the next year
seems
entirely possible at the moment. When to publish it after the
preparation is
complete will be a committee decision, and as has already been said,
the
Lute Society's ability to produce new facsimilies does depend on
support
for the existing publications.
It's good to see Robert Spencer's name mentioned in the context of
the
Cherbury manuscript. His vision of making lute manuscripts available
in facsimile is still a major inspiration for the Lute Society's work
in that field. We don't have specific plans beyond Cherbury, but I
very much hope that the series will be able to continue, ideally
until every English lute manuscript is in print. That will take
some time, but it's good to hold onto the vision.....
Best wishes,
Denys

Here's a link to the Society's list of facsimiles, etc., in case
there
are
other things that interest you. Dd 2.11 isn't listed yet:
[4]http://www.lutesoc.co.uk/pages/catalogue
Some of us have had to wait for 30 years for the Lord Herbert
facsimile.
Bob Spencer had it at the top of his list, but was unsuccessful in
getting
the library to release it for a facsimile. It would be at the top of
my
list, too. It was quite a frustrating experience for him. He would
mutter,
"We'll just have to wait until he [the librarian] retires."
Dd 2.11 is listed "in the pipeline":
