Dear List,
since many years I was looking for the "Parties `a deux Luths" that
I had heard in a very "dated" recording of Narciso Yepes and Godelieve
Monden. I had then learned that the music came from manuscript PL - Wu
RM 4135, but the only way to find it had been to order the (partial)
edition for two baroque lutes (11 course) edited by Gusta Goldschmidt
back in 1990 for the Dutch Lute Society
([1]http://www.nederlandseluitvereniging.nl/).
Today I (finally!) found the fac-simile on the web: in fact the whole
manuscripts collection from the Gruessau Abbey (today Krzeszow), now
held at the Warsaw University Library, is available at this address:
[2]http://www.dolcesfogato.com/Music/.
The two books of the "Parties `a deux Luths" (which include two
transcriptions of Parties of "Mr. Melante", possibly Georg Philipp
Telemann) can then be downloaded at:
- (1st lute)

- (2nd lute)

In case you'd like to learn a bit more about the Gruessau (Krzeszow)
Mss. collection, I'd suggest a recent article by Tomasz Jez, Institute
of Musicology, University of Warsaw, freely available on academia.edu

Have a great weekend,
