Dear collected wisdom, as the old italian theorbos seemed to be quite huge and double stringed (for 1-6), I am not aware of anyone to play such an instrument in my neighborhood. I recently had the possibility to test an instrument of about 90 cm, which was amazing but single stringed. Does anybody know such a double stringed instrument? Does it really make sense for continuo? Are there other experiences in terms of power, playability, slurs, comfort etc.?
Thank you very much, Jörg To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html
