Dear lutenists,
many thanks to all, who commented very interestingly - in public and in
private - the Capirola Padoana!
I have been checking also some other pieces by "mesez Vicenzo capirola",
as the SPES facsimile names the composer on the cover. It seems to be
obvious that the 4th course needs the octave. There are many places that
work and sound much better so... In the beginning my new Niskanen lute
seemed to make that octave sound too loud, and I changed it to the same
octave. But now the octave is back! We'll see(=hear), what will come of
that... ;-)
The split 3rd doesn't seem to be - at least for now - an attractive
object of major workload, because the old Rooley edition is as such so
fun to play... :)
Best,
Arto
