Subject: [LUTE] What is a classic lute quartet?
I saw a description of "the classic lute quartet"
as four lutes in d'', a', g, and d.
I googled, and I searched the archives of this forum,
and I also tried Wikipedia. Very little was forthcoming.
So I have a number of questions. Is there such a thing
as "the classic lute quartet"? Is there a body of
literature for it? Where and when was its heydey? Who
composed music for it? What factors caused its rise and
fall?
