Dear lute netters,
the Tabualturbeilage 2018/4 contains a few pieces from Judenkunig's
Underweisung.
One of the pieces - the pvavana all Veniciana - looks very strange. Bars
15, 23, 31, 39 and 47 (attention: the barring in the Tabulaturbeilage is
a mess) contain a minim(?) rest which does not make any musical sense.
I think Judenkunig uses it to indicate that the previous note is dotted.
Apparent he had no other means to indicate dotted rhythm)
Well, this is the common notation for _rests_ in german lute tablature.
The distinction between rests and dots is often blurry in early 16th
century sources. Dotted notes are often notated as either rests or
repeated notes/chords.
Cheers, RalfD
