Very nice indeed! Lovely playing and great instrument. Is it possible to know the string lenght (stopped and unstopped)? I couldn't read that in the website. Thanks for sharing, Bruno.

I had never seen this A A video before and I thought I would share it with the list. A A [1][2]http://mediatheque.cite-musique.fr/masc/?INSTANCE=CITEMUSIQU E&URL=/M A A ediaComposite/CMFM/CMFM000004800/default.htm A A I must say, it is the first time I've heard an archlute..... and A A actually really liked it! I usually find the gap between the stopped A A double courses and the open single strings rather off-putting for solo A A music, but this lute has so much oomph that it really overcomes this. A A Indeed, while I am not generally a big fan of archlute continuo either A A - while the background tinkling is pleasant, I have never played/heard A A "real" archlutes (I am *not* speaking here of the single-strung, A A reduced-size modern inventions one sees everywhere ) that could truly A A match the sonority of say an Italian theorbo or a French double lute, A A but this instrument is giving me food for thought. A A Bravo to Pascale for her wonderful playing!
