Hello Monica-

enlighten me a little further?
Thanks, Dan W.

And if you have access to it, Princess Anne's Lute Book includes
arrangements of about 20 pieces from Purcell's stage works of the 1690s
including one piece that might just possibly be one of those played
during a performance of Dido.

Subj: [LUTE] Re: Purcell
If you play the 5 course (baroque) guitar then you'll see that Purcell
asks for a couple of dances for this instrument so this will best
fit
the composer's intentions - as well as having audience appeal.
Select
a chaconne and another piece by, say, Corbetta and this will work
very well in performance.
Peter Holman, with whom I've frequently played continuo in D&A,
believes Purcell expected guitar continuo for much of this
particular work.

I have been asked to play on Purcell's Dido (modern orchestra at
442
with my little 8 course - ok, we can skip this part) and the
conductor
asked for a solo lute piece by Purcell or someone in the same
style.
Is
there any dance tune of him transcribed for renaissance lute? I
thought
that maybe a saraband by Puccinini might work...
Any advice is welcomed!
