Hi All, I have not seen this posted here:
Guitarist, publisher, editor, scholar Matanya Orphee passed away on November 6th at 6:00 p.m. Matanya was an extraordinary man: incredibly productive, controversial, combative and generous. He made some great contributions to the guitar literature not least of which is advocating and publishing and even commissioning works for Russian 7 string guitar. He also published some lute editions. I am grateful to him as the publisher of 5 of my works. I believe Matanya had the rare distinction of being kicked off this list. http://www.guitarandluteissues.com/ Best, Mark Delpriora -- To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html
