Hello Sterling,

The harpsichord version is readily available as No. 103 in Apel and Davison, 
_**Historical Anthology of Music**_ 
(the famous "HAM" to countless generations of music history students). Widely 
available in most libraries.

Also see John Ward's article "The 'Dolfull Domps'" in _**JAMS**_ 4 (1951): 
111-21. Ward's description doesn't seem 
to meet the fresh character of the "Lady Carey's Dompe." Today we are familiar 
with a similar term, e.g., "I've been in 
the dumps all week." 

It's such a famous, attractive piece, surely there must be a tablature 
arrangement around somewhere. --ajn

2016-12-31 Thread AJN
David, To put it another way, ...

 As I tried to explain, the Pruni�res manuscript was NEVER in Prague. In the 
method for baroque lute that you own the author misread "Pa Pruni�res" without 
looking up the correct reading of the abbreviation in the critical apparatus in 
the front of the _*Oeuvres des Dubuts*_ collected edition (1979). 


We all need to take better care in watching for such matters. They can often 
cause great confusion, as you discovered in this instance. Others often want to 
seek a score for a piece on a CD, or the score itself for a performance of the 
same work. 


Your author guessed that "Pa" meant "Prague Archive," as in the library sigla 
he cited, <<<>>> "Pa 
Pruni�res" means Paris Pruni�res "Bibl. particuliere" [=private library] of 
Henry Pruni�res (d. 1942). Afterwards ("puis") the ms 

was acquired by Genevi�ve Thibault, Comtesse de Chambure (d. 1975). She 
bequeathed her entire collection of rare early prints and manuscripts to the 
Biblioth�que nationale in Paris (B. N.). Her collection of early musical 
instruments went to the Conservatoire. 

But her heirs sued to keep the books in the family. 


As I recall the litigation seemed to last forever, and as a compromise the 
Biblioth�que nationale gave up some of Thibault's prints and manuscripts 
already in their possession. The library retained much of the collection, 
including the "Pa Pruni�res Ms." 


 While the collection was in limbo during the litigation it could be described 
as you quote in the paragraph directly above Matthew's signature, a temporary 
shelf description: 

 Paris, B.N., [=Paris, Bibliot�que nationale]
aut. Bibl. particuliere Prunieres, 
puis Bibl. G. Thibault de Chambure (v. 1712). "Fantaisies et Praeludes... (par) 
Mr Weiss a Rome". 


AFTER the litigation ended, the manuscript officially joined the B.N. 
collection and was given the shelf number R�s Vmc 61. That's (to answer your 
question) how the ms got from Prague to R�s Vmc 61. 


As for books the family retained, they show up every now and then on the music 
antiquarian market. Mdme. Thibault, truly a "Grand Dame" and a generous one in 
sharing her valuable collection of rare books. She permitted me to use an 
important _*unica,*_ from her collection, the 1548 Casteliono 

*Libro Secondo*_ for the HUP Francesco edition. It contains what is surely 
Francsco's most mature works. I sent her a copy of the Francesco edition with 
an inscription expressing my gratitude for her kindness. The family kept it, 
and later our fellow Lute List reader Wie Wolf purchased that 

very same copy with my inscription from an antiquarian dealer in Berlin. 


The family also retained a copy of Dowland's Third Book of Ayres. A few years 
ago I saw it, identified as from the Thibault collection, being offered for 
sale by music antiquarian dealer for $35,000. It didn't sell apparently, and a 
few years later the dealer offered it "marked down" to the bargain price of 
$15,000. 

Rare books do not a good investment make. Thanks for the question, David. We 
all learned from it. Arthur.

The tablature was brought to the library, but had not yet been cataloged. Mde. 
Thibault had willed her entire collection to the Biblioth�que nationale. Also 
there was a law suit initiated by the Thibault heirs who wanted the scores.
 A compromise was brokered, as I recall.  She had many, many rare books and

[LUTE] Re: Source for Le Berceau Canarie

2016-12-19 Thread AJN
 This is an interesting case, perhaps deserving of an extended comment. 


In many collected editions, and other scholarly publications, there may be a 
list of original sources from which the editor drew pieces included in the 
edition or study, often 

cited with an abbreviation. . It is important to look up and use the resolution 
given in the list of source abbreviatons. Guesses don't work. 


David's _*Method*_ cited as source for the piece he sought, "CZ-Pa Ms 
Pruni�res". This is a RISM library sigla for CZ=Czechoslovakia, P=Prague and 
a=archive (the State Archive in Prague--I was there once. It has ONE manuscript 
lute 


tablature with anonymous minuets galore, bourees, polonaises, etc., formerly in 
a Piarist convent.*) 


Consequently I too was puzzled by the reference to Pruni�res in Prague, of all 
places. Henry Pruni�res (d. 1942) was a famous French scholar and bibliophile 
who specialized in 17th century French music. 

His most famous work is a biography and complete edition of the works of Lully 
in TEN volumes. As a bibliophile he also collected original scores, including 
several lute tablatures, which passed through his library 

to the Bibioth�que nationale in Paris. Pa-, pa-, papa-geno? Paris? or Prague?


[OT] Henry enjoys a "special" place in my heart because he made an arrangement 
of Francesco da Milano's Ricercar No. 37 (which is actually by Perino 
Fiorentino, Francesco's student). The arrangement is for "concert grand piano." 

It is so filled with pianistic figurations that when performed it would sound 
like a piece by Franz Liszt himself!! 


Well the "Le Berceus canarie" that David requested appears twice in the 
collected edition of lute music by Dubut father and son, _*Oeuvres des Dubut*_ 
ed. Monique Rollin and Jean-Michel Vaccaro (Paris: CNRS 1979), 

-No. 122 ("Le Berceus, canarie" from ""Pa Pruni�res""** [=F-Pn Vmc ms. 61, 
fol. 47 recto!!!]) AND 

-No. 128 ("Gigue" from ""Pa Barbe"" [=F-Pn Vmb 7, p. 53]), both by Dubut 
P�re. 


"Pa" in the _*Oeuvres*_ stands not for Prague Archive, but Paris, that is, the 
Biblioth�que nationale [=F-Pn}. PAY ATTENTION TO ABBREVIATIONS, they're all 
over the place in our repertory. And can be confused, as in this 

instance by the author of David's _*Method*_


**[Formerly in Pruni�res private library, later in the private library of 
Genevieve Thibault. "Pa Barbe" also went directly from Pruni�res library to the 
Bibl. nationale.

*I'll leave for later the use of minuets in monasteries and convents, e.g., at 
Melk. From behind that round window from which music often sounded.

   Hello Arthur:
   As you know, attributing music of questionable origin to a well-know

   who strive to untangle received ideas. Apparently, Josquin became a
   much less prolific composer after the New Josquin Edition was
   completed.
   <> It's useful to understand that the music of Josquin and
   Francesco continued to be copied and printed for nearly a century after
   their deaths.   It is unfortunate that Victor Coehlo is of the belief
   that attributions to Francesco first appearing in the sources after
   about 1540 were composed by an amanuensis, a "lute virtuoso from the
   hills of Tuscany." In Victor's opinion, the lutenist composed pieces in
   Francesco's style and attributed them falsely in an effort to enhance
   Francesco's posthumous fame.  This is far-fetched since there are so
   few examples of such practice, usually undertaken for pecuniary
   interests, e.g., publishing Pleyel string quartets under the name of
   Haydn to increase their saleability.  Likewise with Galilei's
   "Francesco" ricerars which seem to be improvisations on Francesco-like
   musical motives. Or simply a mistaken identity, as Ruggiero Chiesa's
   No. LVIII below.  And literally tons of lute music has disappeared with
   the sands of time, so the singular pieces appearing late in the century
   are not as lonely as they appear today..
   As for examples in the music of Francesco, in Arthur Ness, _The Lute
   Music of Francesco Canova da Milano_, Harvard University Press,
   Cambridge, MA, 1970, your N. 11 was wrongly attributed to Francesco,
   and I think I recall that you have changed your mind and credited Marco
   Dal l'Aquila with the piece.

   -- 0 iii: 4 2)  = [d / dot d c# b]. (I suspect that the publisher of
   "sine datum" needed a ricercar in D and didn't have one by Francesco
   and used this one by Marco).  Also No. 45 based on the Calata alla
   Spagnola is surely by Marco as well.  That sine datum  print dates from
   before 1533 because it is the source a piece in Gerle's 1533 print.
   In Appendix D of your work, one can find
   several examples of questionable attribution.
   <> That's why they're in the appendix.
   Then there are several
   pieces in the Siena ms. that Martin Shepherd thinks may be by
   Francesco, and I agree with some of his suggestions.
   <> I think his suggestions are excellent choices. Of course adding
   pieces on stylistic features alone would have been especially dangerous
   back then, especially due to the uneven bibliographical control over
   the sources, a problem which we still face (albeit to a lesser extent).
   Respectable twentieth-century scholars have attributed a few works to
   Francesco. Ruggerio Chiesa thought the fantasia found in the Bottegari
   ms. and elsewhere was by Francesco.
   <> Chiesa's No. LVIII.  There are two or three sources for that
   fantasia, one is attributed to "d'Incerto" in the source.  It's rather
   proper 3-voice 16th century counterpoint, but hardly in Francesco's
   style.  The rhythm is  rather square.  I don't recall who first
   attributed the work to Francesco.
   <>There is another misattributed work in Chiesa's edition (not in
   the HUP edition).  No. LIX from Paris, Rés 429, fol. 135: "Recercar de
   F.M."  Chiesa and others misread the J for F.  The "J" has a line
   though the stem and looks like an "F".  It is by "JM," Julio da Modena
   (Segni), No. XI in Colin Slim's edition of Musica Nova.
   And Daniel Heartz made a case for
   the first prelude in Attaignant as another piece by Francesco, which
   was reinforced in the footnote 9 on page 3 of your Introduction:
   "Daniel Heartz argues convincingly that Francesco's music was known to
   France at least a decade before the visit to Nice. The first prelude
   in Pierre Attaignant's _Tres breve et familiere introduction (Paris,
   1529) shows unmistakable features of Francesco's style, as Professor
   Heartz points out in a comparison of the prelude with Fantasia No. 24
   (see Heartz's _Preludes, chansons and dances for lute [Neuilly-sur
   Seine, 1964], pp. xv-xvii). It is significant that this prelude also
   appears in the "Siena Lute Book" (fol. 17-17v) in an eminently better
   version than published by Attaignant. See Figs. 6 and 7."

   Dear Are:
   Diana Poulton attributed the piece (with reservation) to Dowland based
   on the fact that it contains several of Dowland's typical devices; the
   ascending scale passages with a repeated first note, and several
   tonic/dominant repetitions with inversions. The piece also appears in
   the manuscript (D9) following another fantasia more securely attributed
   to Dowland (Poulton #6). I have to agree with you that Poulton #73
   doesn't necessarily sound like Dowland, and the fact that the piece
   really needs reconstruction does not help the matter. There seems to
   be a tendency to attribute unascribed music to known composers simply
   because a given piece is good. This is certainly the case with many
   pieces attributed to Francesco da Milano.

   Please, don't use Gimp. It's a marvelous program, but not meant for
   that kind
   of job (and your "IT-person" should know ...) Gimp works on raster

   only and will convert a pdf to a (set of) raster images. At that point

   might
   want to have a look at MuseScore ([13]https://musescore.org) - that'll

   The digital version of that would be to import our pdf into a vector
   drawing
   program (Adobe Illustrator, Inkscape etc.) but the quality of that
   import
   depends on the program that generated the pdf.
   Unfortunately, the only convincing path to solve your problem is to use
   the

   NO the pdf). Otherwise, a good pair of scissors IS an astonishingly

   You might start with one of the OMR (Optical Music Recognition)
   programs.  I've never used this process, but a publisher
   did reformat a page that I submitted in *.pdf format.  He downloaded
   the resulting file into a music notation program
   and re-edited it.
   See [1]http://www.music-notation.info/en/compmus/omr.html

   Dear David and Bruno,
   Many thanks for this.
   I've looked at Partifi now: it seems mostly to have been designed to
   produce individual parts from a full score although there does seem to
   be the facility to combine some. But the need to have to label every
   line and specify a part on every single page might make the whole thing
   a bit labourious for what I wish to do. eg a 165 page full score with
   up to 30 independent parts/lines to cut and paste into a short score of
   just four principal lines would seem to take a long time to achieve -
   unless I've missed some easier facility within Partifi.
   But many thanks

[BAROQUE-LUTE] Re: Biechteler

2016-08-30 Thread AJN
   Thanks or the information, Markus.  I did see some atttribution to
   "Matt" Biechteler.
   Placide Marie Pichler was a Benedtine friar, famed organist and
   composer of sacred vocal music.  He was born, as you
   suggested, rather late--in 1722.  Some of the Pichler ensembles can be
   dated positively before 1731, so they
   could hardly be by Placide.  I need to find my notes and will write
   more tomorrow. Pichler is a real problem.
   And the variety of spellings makes for more difficulties.  E.g., BA
   1/4chler.  Sometimes BA 1/4chler on the cover, and
   Pichler on the parts.

   I also was very astonished about the title of the mail.
   Biechteler is Matthias Sigismund Biechteler of Greiffenthal (about
   1668-1743), who was the successor of Biber in Salzburg and played the
   lute. But I don't think there is a piece by him in MS Egerton 2046.
   There are some in A-WAP:s ms. 120 and PL-Kj ms. mus. 40620.
   Furthermore he seems to have been involved in A-KR78.
   Pichler still is a mistery. For sure he cannot be identified with
   Placide Marie Pichler - he is much too late and it is never said that
   he
   played the lute.

   Dear Friends,
   Some years ago I was reading through the original tabulature manuscript
   MS Egerton 2046 ("Jane Pickering Lute Book") in the British Library,

   English lute repertory, because it contains more than 80 renaissance
   lute pieces from composers such as Dowland, Rosseter, Bacheler and

   However, the great surprise at least for me was that in the middle of

   from French and English composers. To make it even more attractive,
   these pieces in French Tabulature are for lutes in various Accords
   Nouveaux tunings. To play these pieces I had to re-string and re-tune
   my baroque lute to one of the early baroque lute tunings know today as
   Accords Nouveaux.
   I have now completed my amateur home recording of some pieces in the
   socalled "Tuning Gautier" as presented in the manuscript. This "Tuning

   I should add that Magdalene Tomsinka also gives the Ms 4022 folio
   numbers for each piece on her CD.
   That may assist you when playing from the facsimile.
   The contents include the notorious attr. to P.B. which resulted in a
   whole volume of lute music by
   Bartholomeo Pekiel, a deserving master Polish composer.  Listen to some
   of his monumental Gabrieli-inspired grand polychoral works.
   Of course B.P, stands for Balletto Polacho, as the dances are properly
   identified on this CD. The "Pekiel" lute edition,
   which was transcribed using the Schrade method, was withdrawn.  Pekiel
   would have been 5 years old when that manuscript was copied.

2016-07-17 Thread AJN
   In Sarge's facsimile of Bossinensis, vol. 1, the frottola is on folio
   34-34v.  (the titles is ". . . piA^1 speranza"; ". . . la speranza" is
   part of the title of a previous piece.)  Perhaps Sarge can include the
   titles of vols. 1 & 2 from Brown's __Instrumental Music printed before
   1600__.  (BrownI1509/1  BrownI1511/1).

   It will take some practice to catch the shifting meter of the frottola
   as evident in this piece.

   Dear Andreas Schlegel,   (rev. 6/26)
   Prego,


   All of Respighi's pieces were orchestrated from various transcriptions
   from lute tablature by Oscar Chilesotti.  As you requested.

   here are the originals from which O.C. worked.  His transcriptions are
   also cited.  I wonder if Paul played from the tablature

   or the transcriptions.  His first CD was from the Chilesotti Codice

   The Original Sources for Respighi's  Antiche Arie e Danse per Liuto


   Arthur J. Ness (2013)


 I. Suite  (1917)


   1. Simon Molinaro, "Ballo detto il Conte
   Orlande,"  Intavolatura di lauto ... Libro Primo  (Venice: Amadino,
   1599; Rpt. Florence, SPES,1978), p. 8.

   Respighi does not use the"Saltarello del preditto ballo" as
   the contrasting middle piece, but rather repeats the ballo in the minor
   mode (BalloMajor/BalloMinor/BalloMajor).

   Lautenspieler,* p. 139.


   2a.   Vincenzo Galilei,"Polymnia Gagliarda,"  Libro d'intavolatura
   di leuto (1584),  Florence, Biblioteca nazionale centrale, Fondo
   anteriori a Galilei 6 (Facs. Florence, SPES, 1992), p. 189.


   2b.   The "Italiana" from the  Lauten-Buch,*  No. 59, alternates
   (Polymnia/Italiana/Polymnia) with the Gagliarda, but is not by Galilei,
   as some have claimed in cheap guitar editions.

   The pieces were conceived 820 km apart. The piece is a
   Dudelsack, the ostinato represents the drone and the top line, the
   chanter. Several similar pieces in Fuhrmann's tablature.


   3. Villanella: "Orlando fa'che ti recordi,"  Lauten-Buch,  No.
   50.  One of the most beautiful pieces of the Renaissance.


   4. Passamezzo bonissimo, Lauten-Buch,  No. 24 (continued as No.
   66).


   5. Mascherada (Trommeten Tanz), Lauten-Buch,  No. 43.


   II. Suite (1923)


   1. Fabritio Caroso,"Laura suave: Balletto con Gagliarda,
   Saltarello e Canario,"  NobilitA  di Dames  (Venice, 1600, 1605; Rpt
   Bologna, Forni, 1970), p. 111.

   In Chilesotti, ed., Danze del secolo XVI (Milan 1884?;
   Forni 1969), pp. 22-5.


   2. Jean-Baptiste Besard, "Bransles de Village" for lute duet
   from  Novus Partus: Isagoge  (Augsburg, 1617; Rpt Geneva: Minkoff,
   1983). Lautenspieler, 220


   3. Incertis autoris. "Campagnae Parisiesis," Besard 1617.

   That's a nice read, Martyn.  Thanks for posting it. I recall some of it
   from a lecture he gave several years ago.  He can talk non-stop
   for hours about gut strings.

   I'd heard a similar story some years ago but then the culprit was
   mercuric oxide (also dangerous and absorbable through the skin) which
   is also red/brown.
   Peruffo mentioned it when he was researching his concept of loaded
   strings - effectively reducing the diameter for the same mass p. u.
   length to favour more upper harmonics. The same brilliant
   characteristic may, as you say, also be the reason for thinner, but
   still as tense, violin first strings.
   Peruffo's pdf here contains some good pics of lutes with coloured
   strings - mostly red.

   I think it is in fact the same music, just in a different "key" and
   with different rhythmic organization, particularly at the opening. What
   you are seeing in the tablature is a version adapted for plucked
   strings with idiomatic changes in rhythm, a very common characteristic
   of intabulated vocal music. It's actually very interesting to see the
   way intabulators modified the music, for instance in Fuenllana's many
   duos for which we can find vocal scores. I think Fuenllana's adaptation
   of the Benedictus duo from Josquin's Missa Pange lingua is much better
   music than Josquin's original.
   Herbert, I imagine your questions arise in attempting to sort out the
   several points of dissonance in Valderrabano's tablature. The best
   thing you can do to gain an understanding of the piece is transcribe
   the tablature into notation on two staves.

[LUTE] Re: Per illud ave

2016-03-20 Thread AJN
   There is a tertia pars for Josquin's motet "Benedicta es coelorum
   regina,"---"Nunc Mater." It is perhaps the most popular sacred
   work in the lute repertory. Many years ago I
   counted 22 sources having intabulations of it, and today the number
   would be higher, including pages 60 ("Benedicta")-62 ("Poti Undans" =
   misspelling of "Per illud ave") in  Mus Ms 40032
   (ex-Berlin) now in Cracow.  There is a notation on page 62 "Van
   gelinga," which suggested a Dutch composer to one writer.  But
   interestingly, since such indications are
   so rare in lute sources, it is a rubric for Italian "Vangelo," Gospel.
That is, the piece is appropriate to be played before the Gospel
   reading in the mass.

2016-03-02 Thread AJN
   Wayne  Cripps' lute list from Dartmouth does not accept attachments.
   Jean-Marie, you could use the Lute List Ning or Lute Society lists.  Or
   send the duet privately.
   This duet is in the recently discovered Castelfranco Lute Book.  For
   many years it was hidden away, and only recently did a facsimile appear
   (2012--Paul O'Dette played a recital announcing the discovery in
   1994!).  During that period the duet was published in an article by the
   editor of the Arnaldo Forni facsimile, Franco Rossi, and then reprinted
   in the Lute News of the Lute Society (UK).  The manuscript was compiled
   by Giovanni Pacoloni, the composer of the famous lute trios.
   Unlike the Canon and Spagna duos, which surely are juvenalia the new
   duet is much in Francesco's familiar style. --Arthur

[LUTE] Re: Blessed be that Maid Marie (attn. Paul Kieffer)

2015-11-30 Thread AJN
You need to use McFeely's inventory with GREAT CARE.  The Ballet Ms is
   right there, although you have to look hard to find it.  Hint: upper
   right hand corner under Ms. 408/1.  Also the bibliography.
   Otherwise you wouldn't know what's what.  And I must warn all of you
   about "fascicle manuscripts."  Denys and others have had problems with
   them.  Often, even in the distant past,

   unrelated manuscripts are sometimes bound together.  In the Munich lute
   manuscript, for several centuries, lute music, when it was received,
   was tossed into several envelopes, as sheet music.
   One envelope even somehow included orchestral parts for a 17th century
   ballet, along with the tablatures. In 1868 the sheets were taken out of
   the envelopes and
   bound together, although they were from various places and times. MusMs
   266 has 11 unrelated fascicles dating from ca. 1536 to 1577.
   For Ballet you need to look for Ms. 408/1. The shelf number for the
   Ballet manuscript has changed from Dublin, Trinity College Library, Ms.
   D.1.21 to Ibid., Ms.408/1.
   That's essential information, and McFeely fails to tell us!!
   Ms. D.1.21 formerly encompassed two unrelated manuscripts. It was a
   fascicle manuscript.  Now the second fascicle is Ms. 408/2.   Similarly
   with the Dallis Manuscript.
   I didn't find "Maid Mary," but McFeely says she left out some
   pieces.  That is, McFeely, not Mary.

[LUTE] Re: Another lute picture?

2015-11-25 Thread AJN
   Dear David,
   Yes, what I was attempting to suggest is that the lute is simply a prop
   and the sitter
   is not actually playing it.  It's there to symbolize something like
   harmonious love.
   And does the left hand position have additional symbolism.  I guess one
   could really make a
   little drama from it.  As I indicated the broken strings which I could
   not see might
   have additional symbolism.  I must agree it doesn't look like an
   original painting by a Dutch master.

   van der Neer or van der Werff. Plus all the other anachronisms!

   Oh.  I couldn't see the broken strings.  There is allegorical symbolism
   of broken strings, and Charlotte told me about
   an entire book devoted to the matter.  I've often puzzled over the
   wonderful engraving of Ochsenkhun from his lute book.
   He has such a surprised look on his face: "Oh, damn, I just changed
   that string yesterday!"

   So what do I know? the top of the bass extension appears to have at
   least two pegs mounted perpendicular to the others, coming out of or
   going behind the plane of the neck. If there are three arranged that
   way, it would account for all 9 string.
   To me, it looks like two strings on the lute are broken, and someone,
   the Lady, perhaps, has gathered the loose lengths up and tucked them
   under the string plane to keep them out of the way.
   Many portraits of this era made use of allegory: perhaps the artist was
   aware of, and painted into the picture, his assessment of the couple's
   relationship, the lady's pre-occupied look to the heavens and her
   instrument's broken strings being connected and a statement upon either
   her fidelity or comfort with her portrait-sharing partner?
   If I were asked to sit for a portrait with such an instrument, and
   told, by the artist, to sit on the right side of the other person, I
   would, politely and inappropriately-for-playing, rotate the lute in my
   lap to stick the neck off to the left. So I don't take any hints of
   handedness of the picture from that. The broken strings, the
   inattention or even ennui on her face, and the dog add up to unmusical
   indications of the Lady's status in the eyes of the painter, though.

   There seems to be an inside joke we're not privy to here. It may
   just
   be that the artist liked the 90 degree angle created by the 2
   instruments when held this way. And/or if she held it in the normal
   position she would have risked obscuring the man's face and throwing
   off the composition.But look at the dog: he/she doesn't seem to be
   enjoying the lute playing and the reaction is aimed pointedly at the
   lute player. Something important is happening there.
   This borders on parody, seen apparently from the point of view of
   the
   male gamba player, who looks directly at us. Subtle; but barely . .
   .
   It seems to me to be a joke on the woman, whether or not she was

[LUTE] Re: Intabulation of Cara mia dolce stella / Chiara et lucente Stella (Hans Leo Hassler) by Melchior Neusidler

2015-11-09 Thread AJN
   Lieber Herr Dr. med. Hambre,
   This is good news. This is the manuscript known as the Donaueschingen
   Lautenbuch because for many years it was at the Fuerstlich
   Fuerstenberische Hofbibliothek in that town, where the Danube River
   issues into a grotto, decorated with the statue of Johann Strauss
   playing most likely his famous waltz on his violin. It was most likely
   compiled in Munich, rather than Donaueschingen. I have a recent article
   on this immense work of 412 pieces in three volumes of 73, 81 + 61
   folios: "Briefly Noted: A Physician's Lute Book," JLSA 40 (2007): 84-6.
I identify the possible owner to be one of two lute-playing physicians
   active in Munich, Johann Georg Brengger (also spelled Brencker) (b.
   1559, d. after 1617), later dean of the School of Medicine in
   Kaufbeuren, and Hieronymus Fabrum, from 1591 through 1608 Liebarzt to
   Dukes Albrecht V and Maximillian I. The latter intabulated several
   German Lieder by Lasso and his complete Sacrae lectione of 1565.
   He must have been Lasso's personal friend.
   The dance you ask about is No. (not fol.) 71 on folios 35v-36 of volume
   I.

[BAROQUE-LUTE] Over one million records! RISM online

2015-07-21 Thread AJN
   This announcement is worthy of the attention of some of you who search
   for original sources
   of lute music:

   RISM is pleased to announce a major addition to its free online
   catalog
   that strengthens its utility as a resource for the documentation of
   printed music. Two of its major publications have been added to the
   online catalog and are freely available online for anyone to search at
   opac.rism.info
   (_[1]https://opac.rism.info/metaopac/start.do?View=rism_)
   and

   [2]www.rism.info ([3]http://www.rism.info/):
   *
   The entire contents of A/I, /Individual Prints before 1800
   /Released on CD-ROM in 2012 and previously in 14 printed volumes
   *
   A portion of B/I, /Recueils imprimes, XVIe-XVIIe siecles /(Printed
   collections of the 16th-17th centuries), covering the years 1500-1550
   The addition of these printed sources brings the total number of
   records
   in the online catalog to over 1,010,000. New search fields allow users
   to search by *Publisher*, *A/I or B/I number*, and *Plate number*.
   Search results can be refined using the categories *Publisher *or a
   RISM*Series*. Icons of prints and manuscripts allow quick visual
   recognition.
   We would like to express our gratitude to Baerenreiter and Henle
   Verlag
   for allowing us to incorporate the data into our catalog.
   This addition of over 100,000 prints to the online catalog is an
   initial
   step towards revitalizing coverage of printed music in RISM. There are
   certainly many additions and corrections to be made to the A/I and B/I
   data and we ask for your patience as we work out a procedure for
   reporting new information. Institutions or individuals with additions
   or
   corrections to prints already in A/1 or B/1 are welcome to report them
   to us but for larger amounts of corrections, as well as new printed
   items without entries in A/1 or B/1, it will probably be easier to
   wait
   until the new cataloging program, Muscat, is available (expected in
   late
   2015).
   Any questions can be directed to: [4]cont...@rism.info

   Hi Geoff,
   The Thomas edition (Pro Musica) was not among the antiquarian hits in
   my search.
   Apparently the edition is so good, no one wants to sell their copies on
   the antiquarian market.
   There are also excellent London  Pro musica editions of Italian dance
   ensembles, ed. Michael
   Morrow from manuscripts in Munich.

2015-07-16 Thread AJN
   Dear Val,
   There are many, many arrangements/editions of the Susato dances
   (including at least one for
   tuba quartet [honest]), as well as the facsimile edition.
   Some are quite inexpensive (Giesbert ed. 3-7 Euros).  To find books in
   the antiquarian market,
   use the last column in the Karlsruhe Connection:
   [1]http://www.ubka.uni-karlsruhe.de/kvk_en.html
   Although many of the index firms are German, coverage is international
   (France, U.S., Orient, Australia, etc.).  So look for a dealer in your
   country to save on postage.
   The best Susato choice would be the Giesbert volumes.

[BAROQUE-LUTE] Re: Falckenhagen Op. 3

2015-05-08 Thread AJN
   Dear Markus and Peter,
   Perhaps I might belatedly add some additional information from a source
   I should have consulted when we discussed these
   works, Peter.  It is a bit confusing, and even expert music catalogers
   and bibliographers have been lead astray.
   Beginning in  the 16th century and for many centuries thereafter
   Leipzig hosted an Easter book fair.
   For each year a published catalog listed the new works and revised
   works, including music, which
   were available for purchase from dealers at the fair.
   The catalogs are a valuable bibliographical tool for matters such as
   ours.
   For nearly a century, from 1664 until 1759, the Leipzig firm of Johann
   Gross (and heirs) published them:
   //*Catalogus universalis, hoc est, designatio omnium librorum . . .
   vel novi vel emendatieres et auctiores prodierunt*\\

   Indicated below with Gr plus year.
   In catalogs from 1736, 1738 and 1743, the titles of eight works by
   Falckenhagen are listed, five with opus
   numbers:

   [Op. 1] Sonate [6] a Liuto solo . . . dedicate . . . Federica Sofia
   Villemina,Margravia di Brandenburgo.

   Opera prima. ..  fol. NA 1/4rnberg: Haffner.   Gr 1743 RISM F71:
   copies at B-Bc, D-Rp, D-LEm, GBaLbm


   [Op. 2] Sei Partite a Liuto solo.  Opera seconda. fol. kosten 2 Th. NA
   1/4rnberg: Haffner. Gr 1743

   RISM F72: copies at B-Bc, DaBds, GB-Lbm


   [Op. 3] Sei Concerti a Liuto, Traverso [A^2] OboA [A^2] Violino 
   Violoncello . . . Opera terza.

   NA 1/4rnberg: Haffner.  Gr 1743 RISM F73a-asupplement F72a: plate
   no. I: copy of lute part

   only at PL-Wu.


   [Op. 4] [Sei] Concerti a Liuto, Traverso [A^2] OboA  Violoncello . .
   . Opera quarta. NA 1/4rnberg: Haffner.

   Gr 1743 No copy known to survive. But we now know it existed at one
   time, and maybe . . .


   [Op. 5] [Sei] Sonatine da Camera a Liuto solo.  Opera quinta. NA
   1/4rnberg: Haffner.

   Gr 1743 No copy known to survive.


   [Op. nuova] [Sei] Concerti a Liuto, Traverso OboA A^2 Violino
   Violoncello . . . Opera nvova dedicati a

   Sua Altezza Serenissima . . . Ernesto Avgvsto, Duca di Sassonia, . . .
   Duca regnante du Sassonia-Weimar.

   NA 1/4rnberg:Haffner.


   Gr deest; RISM F73, plate no. III (ca. 1743): unique copy from
   DaWRtl, now at

   DaWRz  (RISM mistakenly cites a copy at PL-Wu; that print is not the
   same.  It=Opera terza,

   above).  This copy from the private Thurn und Taxis Hofbibliothek,
   Regensberg


   The card catalogue at WRz gives the full title and the cataloger cites
   cross references including a

   Uniform Title: Trios, Lt Ob Vc, Op. 4.

   This croass reference seems to be the reason some modern editions
   (including our Joachim's Gesamptausgabe)

   cite this print as Op. 4 (Opera IV), although no where in the print
   itself is it so designated.

   It remains improbable that a copy of Opera quarta was available for
   comparison.

   That is, Op. 4 seems to be a music cataloger's addition.

   The plate number (III) is also sometimes mistaken as an opus
   number,e.g. RISM F73

   (above) and New Grove which give Op. 3.

   The g minor concerto (No. 5) is rehearsed on You Tube by

   John Schneiderman, An Evening with Wilhelmine  (Sofia Wilhelmine of
   Brandenburg,

   Fredrickthe Great's sister and Falckenhagen's first patroness.)  The
   opera nuova concertos are

   sometimes called flute concerti in modern scores and CDs.

   The other works are [Sei] Sonate di Liuto solo Gr 1736;
   La premier douzaine des Menuets pour le Lut Gr 1738;
   Sonate del Liuto solo (Vienna) Gr  1748
   Not listed is Erstes Dutzend . . . Geistlicher-GesACURnge (Haffner pl.
   no. XXII, 1746).
   RISM F 74.  Copies at B-Bc, GB-Lbl and (not listed in RISM) US-Wc.

Hi Chris
   
Having written the liner notes for John Schneiderman's recording of
Falckenhagen's opera nova (a CD apparently never released), and
having discussed the matter in detail with Arthur Ness and others, I
fear only the lute part to Op. 3 survives. Unfortunate. So much of
Falckenhagen's music seems to be lost.
   
Whether or not opera nuova is identical to a cataloged op. IV (as
Joachim Domning claims), remains to be seen, depending on actually
finding a copy of op. IV.
   
I look forward to receiving your new CD, Chris.

2015-05-02 Thread AJN
   Yes, Jean-Michel, like French cannelle,, one meaning for
   canella(Venetian canela) is spigot
   in Italian and Venetian dialect (these are Venetian dances). Or in
   general terms simply refers to a small cane, that is,
   canella regina = cinnamonabecause it looks like cane, drinking straw,
   swamp grass, etc., etc.).
   A 1546 description of the dance-song calls Tocha tocha la canella a
   cane dance, in which the men hold
   canes, et dando a ciascun baloardo (?!) una canna in mano ad alta voce
   poi gli
   dicono tocca la canella, that is, they sing (first line of lyrics)
   Tocha, tocha la chanella chio ti tocchera il tetton.
   It's risquA(c) methinks.  Dr. Baloardo is a stock character in the

2015-05-02 Thread AJN
   Yes, Jean-Michel, like French cannelle,, one meaning for
   canella(Venetian canela) is spigot
   in Italian and Venetian dialect (these are Venetian dances). Or in
   general terms simply refers to a small cane, that is,
   canella regina = cinnamonabecause it looks like cane, drinking straw,
   swamp grass, etc., etc.).
   A 1546 description of the dance-song calls Tocha tocha la canella a
   cane dance, in which the men hold
   canes, et dando a ciascun baloardo (?!) una canna in mano ad alta voce
   poi gli
   dicono tocca la canella, that is, they sing (first line of lyrics)
   Tocha, tocha la chanella chio ti tocchera il tetton.
   It's risquA(c) methinks.  Dr. Baloardo is a stock character in the
   comedia dell'arte.

[LUTE] Re: Lutheran Hymns for lute?

2015-03-21 Thread AJN
   Here are 227 of them (with an English quadrille tossed in).
   [1]https://www.scribd.com/doc/253924713/PL-Kj-Mus-Ms-40151-mf
   That's the */Canzoni divoti tradotti nell'Liuto\* (Mus Ms 40151
   ex-Berlin) assembled by Kammermusicus at Coethen, lutenist Johann
   Michael Sciurius (Eichhorn?) for Christina Agnes Agnera, Princesse
   d'Anhalt-Coethen (on cover: C.A.A. P.d'A / 1742).  The chorales are
   drawn mainly from the Gesangbuch of Freylinghausen (1715).   They are
   organized by key into groups of four or five chorales, forming short
   sacred suites. Christina also studied harpsichord with J. S. Bach, and
   later was Countess of Anhalt-Dessau, where her Kapellmeister was
   Wilhelm Rust (d. 1796).
   He likely composed four sonatas for lute and violin (one for viola)
   with her in mind (one of his manuscripts has some of the Sciurius
   chorales).  They were first performed when the court went gondola
   rowing along the canals of the Garden of Dessau-WAP:litz (gondolas
   still operate there).   His like-named grandson published them in 1896.
He was the famous chief editor of the Bach Gesellschaft Ausgabe.  But
   he had a special plans for his grandfather's music.
   He published some of the elder Wilhelm's by then forgotten compositions
   (including the violin  lute works), altering them to make them appear
   that his grandfather was a major influence on Beethoven. The missing
   link between Mozart/Haydn and Beethoven, some claimed!  The French
   scholar M. D. Calvocoressi spilled the beans in a famous article, Der
   Fall Rust (The Rust Case). Vincent d'Indy in Le Cas Rust wrote in
   support of Rusts, younger and elder.
   Our Andi Schlegel has set the record straight by restoring the original
   readings in his recent edition of the sonatas (Menzikin: Lute Corner,
   1998).  The grandson's printed edition of 1896 is extremely rare.   I
   was unable to find a copy with repeated ILL requests in Germany, and
   concluded references to it were surely bibliographical ghosts.  But
   home in Boston--there in the BPL was a copy waiting for me.  In mint
   condition, of course--sadly nobody had looked at it in 100 years.g

[LUTE] Re: Neusidler

2015-02-21 Thread AJN
   Dear Sean,
   The pieces in the first fascicle of Mus Ms 266 (and other manuscripts
   in the same hand) were sent to the Duke of Bavaria by Melchior
   Newsidler himself (b. 1531--son, not brother of Hans).  I was able to
   compare the handwriting in a letter to the duke with the tablatures.

   In December 1577, Newsidlerwrote his patron Wilhelm II, Duke of
   Bavaria,


   Most serene, honorable Prince, kind Lord, Your princely Grace: Sent is
   my most humble pledge, as well as wishes for a radiant,good, and
   peace-filled New Year. Always before, when wanting to be rememberedby
   Your princely Grace, I have humbly presented some pieces for the lute.
   To that end I also want to comply [this year] and thereforehave
   compiled some quite good German dances, which I do humbly present.


   Fascicles in his hand survive in Mus Mss 266 (nos. 1-14), 1627 (nos.
   1-12: more intabulations), 2987 (nos. 37-8--left in one of the enormous
   Lasso choir books), and Paris BN Res 429 (first fascicle: 2v-48v:
   Italian dances).  Many of the pieces appear in his prints, but often in
   more ornate versions, suggesting he sent early versions to the duke.
   Melchior's output numbers over 200 pieces, making him the most prolific
   lutenist-composer of the Renaissance.  Contents of the available Munich
   manuscripts are below.  The prints are identified by Brown serial
   numbers, and   indicates that the printed version is more ornamented
   than the manuscript version.
   (By the way, Rohrau is near the Newsidler Lake, a few miles south of
   Vienna.  Haydn was born there, and his mother worked in Graf Harrach's
   kitchen.  She might well have overheard Weiss' music from the Rohrau
   and Harrach manuscripts, which were mentioned here a few days ago.)

[LUTE] Re: St Matthew Passion lute part Komm Susses Kreuz

2014-10-21 Thread AJN
   Hi Roland,
   Traditionally the obbligato is played on viola da gamba. And it's a
   rather painful experience for this listener, and for the gambist, as
   well.
   It has continuous dotted notes with wide melodic leaps (depicting
   Christ being led to Crucifixion when Simon takes the cross).
   The gamba has to play a low note, and then skip over several strings to
   play a short high note and then back to a low note.
   For about five minutes. It's not idiomatic gamba music, for sure.  A
   few years ago, someone discovered an earlier version of the
   Passion (in Bach's handwriting???).  It was published in facsimile in
   the Neue Bach-Ausgabe.**
   It shows that the obbligato was originally written for Liuto, which
   it fits very nicely.
   I think David van Ooijen has played it several times.
   Once the conductor gave it back to the gamba player in order to
   preserve what he considered tradition.
   Whereas the gamba version had obviously been a stopgap measure.

   **The facsimile is hard to find. It may be in the volume of critical
   notes.

I must sadly report that my ISP, verizon.com, has cancelled all its
personal web pages, as of September 30th.
So if you have an interest in Marco's music, you have a short while
   to
download pieces (Italian tablature and grand staff transcriptions).
   You
may know of CDs by Chris Wilson, Paul O'Dette and Sando Volta.
I completed the edition some time ago, but it was a hassle to get
   it
onto the web page, so only a portion of the edition is there. As
   for
another venue, that is an open question.
Surely I'll let you know. Marco is such a fine composer, perhaps
   the
most important predecessor to Francesco. You may know of Marco CDs
   by
Chris Wilson, Paul O'Dette and Sandro Volta.

[LUTE] Polish Tablature was Re: Neapolitan tablature?

2014-10-15 Thread AJN
   Good morning, Gary!
   The Polish music scholar Alexander Polinski owned at leasttwo
   manuscripts of lute music.  One foundits way to the library of Countess
   Thibault (MS VII) and passed to the BibliothAquenationale, RA(c)s Vmc
   ms. 61.

   The other one which dates around 1600 was about 34 folios and contained
   many Polishdances and songs, among other things. Its Polish origins
   have never beenquestioned. It was destroyed in WW_II, but Maria

[LUTE] Re: Polish Tablature was Re: Neapolitan tablature?

2014-10-15 Thread AJN
   Dear Gary,
   The varieties of lute tablatures are indeed confusing and inconsistent,
   but it seems to me they had been established for so long, it  would be
   difficult to reform the nomenclature.  I certainly did not wish to
   suggest that Luis Milan's tablature type be changed to Neapolitan,
   since it uses zeros.  And the Munich manuscript bound with Denss' lute
   book is also Spanish, although apparently compiled by a priest in
   Munich.
   The Luis Milan vihuela tablature you mention has been called Spanish
   since (as far as I know) 1884 and perhaps earlier, and has retained
   that name ever since (in work by Wilhelm Tappert [d. 1906] in 1884, in
   notation manuals by Wolf and Apel, and dictionaries such as New Grove
   and the Harvard Dictionary).  Dictionaries are intended to show the
   current meaning of a given term or concept.  And here we have
   confusion, because all other tablatures in Spain are Italian.  And
   indeed Italian tablature is the favored method in Bavaria, Spain and
   Southern France, as well as Italy.  And one just has to make
   adjustment, as far as I can see.  But some scholars who should have
   known better have made embarrassing mistakes by failing to recall the
   confusion in nomenclature.   That is, attributing a Bavarian manuscript
   in Italian tablature to an Italian lutenist, and praising it for its
   typical Italian repertory, when the manuscript was copied in Nuremberg
   and remained in a family library there from 1586 to 1886, when it was
   sold to an Italian scholar.
   There have been attempts to lessen the confusion, but none seem to have
   caught hold.  Hiro Minamino suggested calling the Luis Milan Spanish
   tablature Valencian, thus identifying it more precisely.  But whenever
   the term is used, the writer will have to make an explanation that it's
   what everyone else calls Spanish tablature.g
   Now what to call the recently discovered tablature from circa 1460?

   Dear Arthur,
   Very interesting . . . If used with discretion and the knowledge that
   these geographic labels are not absolute, such terminology is useful.
   After all, is French tablature really French? The earliest extant
   example is certainly Italian (the Pesaro MS), but it becomes so
   associated with France that the label is a convenience. Perhaps the
   same applies to Neapolitan and Polish tablatures. So it is not the
   earliest example that is of primary importance, but common usage. That
   being said, the label inverted French tablature (or Italian, for
   Milan) is also useful and perhaps less confusing. And speaking of
   Milan, I think it is an error to label this Neapolitan since he does
   use the zero.
   As to the sources:
   The first one you mention is already in my list, although I had to make
   a change for its origins (not sure why I had it from Rome, but perhaps
   this was just an error):
   F-Pn Res. Vmc. ms. 61 [1712] (Poland or Germany?) [RISM B/VII p. 230
   (Thibault 7); SMT I p. 106]
   Note that Poland or Germany in 1712 strongly suggests Silesia, to me.
   So it's Polish, but regular French tablature, correct?
   The second one has been dated much later than 1600 by Christian Meyer:
   PL-WARSAW Aleksander Polinski Private Library, Ms. without Sign.
   [1690-1700?] [LOST]
   [RISM B/VII p. 344; SMT III/2 p. 168]
   I have this as 11c in inverted French tablature and it appears to be
   Polish, as you say. So there is definitely a Polish/Silesian connection
   here, although we would also have to count the number of such sources
   that use normal French tablature, to see if these sources are not
   just a (local?) anomaly . . .
   I'll ask John about the details of the appendix and make sure it is on
   my list. Thanks so much for bringing this up!

   Hello, Gary!
   Certainly by now Neapolitan Tablature is the standard term for that
   kind of tablature.  The term is used as early as 1585 (which is late as
   far as use of Neapoitan tablature in practical sources).  Michele
   Carrara published an engraved broadside _**Intaboltura di Liuto**_
   (n.p. 1585/ BrownI 1585/5; rpt 1594).  It has a piece in mensural
   notation with parallel intabulations into Italian, French and
   Neapolitan tablature.  The latter is titled Intavolatura alla
   Napolitana.  In 1956  a free facsimile* was widely distributed to (ALL
   known?) music libraries by an Italian foundation to mark the
   anniversary of Petrucci's first publication in 1501.  So many libraries
   will have a copy.

   An important addition to the Francesco print by Sulzbach is Bartolmeo
   lieto Panhormitano, _**Dialogo quarto**_ (Naples, 1549), a handbook for
   use by persons who cannot read pitch notation to make Neapolitan
   tablatures from mensural notation.  (John Ward has an article on the
   work in JLSA xv).

[LUTE] Re: de Bellis lute book now on line!

2014-08-24 Thread AJN
It would be nice to see that manuscript again. (Frank's digital files
   don't work for me.) Gustave Reese made an
   inventory of it, published in the Plamenac Festschrift (1969).  Frank
   de Bellis (b. Bari, 1898 d. SF 1968) was a
   very, very wealthy man who made millions in San Francesco commercial
   real estate.  As a hobby in his retirement he
   acquired thousands of rare books, scores, manuscripts and other Italian
   artifacts.  And zillions of foreign 78 rpm recordings of Italian
   music (mostly madrigals, it seemed). He played them on his radio
   program, Music of the Italian Masters. It went nationwide.
   We used to call him the Little Old Wine Maker.  Without realizing, it
   was his better known
   son, Frank de Bellis, Jr., who owned the winery.  An hour of Italian
   madrigals played from scratchy
   recordings was hard to take. He had become a cult figure for the
   members of a youth symphony I played in.
   But it was fun to listen to him with his enthusiastic pronouncements.
   And where else back then might
   one have heard ten minutes of madrigals, let alone hours of them.  Of
   course, he also played lots of Italian baroque
   music, which was little known at the time.  The Vivaldi revival was
   soon underway, and surely he was a contributor.

[LUTE] Re: [Fronimo_editor] Francesco da Milano - Fronimo files

2014-07-26 Thread AJN
   Dear Sylvie and Harald,
   (My critical edition was continuously available from UMI/ProQuest in
   their Books on Demand division after the HUP edition sold out.
   (It was the best seller in the HUP music series.)  Many publishers
   back then used the now defunct UMI/ProQuest on Demand service to make
   their
   out-of-print books available to libraries and others needing
   replacement copies.  Their catalog held an amazing 140,000 titles!
   The original Harvard University Press edition of The Lute Works of
   Francesco Canova da Milano
   has been available for several years now in an AUTHORIZED REPRINT
   EDITION from Boulder Early Music Shop (now in
   Oregon) [1]https://www.bems.com/  Price $80 (eighty dollars)--complete
   in two volumes.  The edition uses the
   8 1/2 x 11 plates made by UMI for their Books on Demand,  and
   includes a half page of updates (on p. xii).
   The tablature-only edition you cite by Seicento Editions costs 192
   Euros (=$258). Nor do I know how accurate it is.
   As a quick look reveals, for each piece I examined, Rainer sic cites
   the same sources I used,
   and has many of the same emendations as I.   Of course, I gathered
   together perhaps a hundred microfilms,
   and examined and collated ALL of the existing original sources for
   Francesco's
   music.  It is standard procedure in preparing a critical edition of
   music to search out, find, and publish the most accurate readings.
   I compared over a two million ciphers and rhythm signs.shudder
   Copies of the original HUP edition appear on the used book market about
   2 or 3 times per year.  Use the Book Fetch / Wish List
   services of international antiquarian book dealers such as abebook.com
or alibris.com  (their coverage is worldwide).
   Most are in very good condition and are reasonably priced  (usually
   well below $150; I bought for $35***; but one recently
   sold for $300).
   You must be quick, because most copies are sold within a few hours of
   being announced on the online antiquarian market.
   ***Mint condition.  A single pencil remark on No. 87a, Magnificent!

   We have another one now.  _*Shakespeare's Songbook*_  by Ross Duffin.
   This is a very good collection by a recognized scholar.
   He has about a dozen references to Lusty Gallant, including Macbeth.
   Duffin is a frequent author of provocative articles in the New Yorker.
 He also teaches at . . .At? . . . . At? . . . .

   He should certainly be invited to lecture at one of our LSA Summer

   Thanks to all !
   Many scholars and musicians know the collection of historical
   instruments at
   the Palais Lascaris in Nice, the result of a bequest in 1904 of all of
   the
   musical collections (instruments, books on music, first editions,
   scores,
   autographs) of Antoine Gautier, founder of a string quartet that had
   celebrated their sixtieth anniversary and whom all of musical Europe
   knew,
   and whose salon they visited.
   The collection has suffered numerous tribulations and moves: MusAA(c)e
   Jules
   ChAA(c)ret in 1904, MusAA(c)e MassAA(c)na in 1922, Conservatoire de
   Musique in 1955, the
   store rooms of the abbaye de Roseland, return to the musAA(c)e
   MassAA(c)na, back in
   storage...
   Finally, the city council decided in 1996 to install it definitively in
   the
   baroque setting of the Palais Lascaris. At that point, under the
   enlightened
   leadership of its curator, the administration hired for the museum a
   reputed
   musicologist and organologist. Mr Robert Adelson. Very rapidly, the
   quality
   of the scholarly work, the richness of the exhibitions, the musical
   programmes, the access given to many scholars, developed a larger and
   larger
   audience, enriching the collections thanks to remarkable donations,
   even
   attracting the long-term loans of precious collections: the Ad Libitum
   collection (keyboard instruments, including an Erard grand piano from
   1790
   in playable state) and the Axa archives (owners of the
   Erard-Pleyel-Gaveau
   collections: paintings, documents, ledgerbooks, instruments, as well as
   an
   immense archive of unpublished correspondence, from Busoni, Cherubini,
   FaurAA(c), Gounod, Liszt, Massenet, Mendelssohn, Moscheles, Paderewski,
   Prokofiev, Ravel, Saint-SaAAns, Thalberg, Widor...).
   The inaugural exhibition of the Axa archives coincided with the
   creation of
   the Gautier galleries, the museum display cases presenting the most
   important instruments of the Gautier collection. In this way, the
   Palais
   Lascaris's own collections were valorised, which assured from that
   moment on
   the international reputation of the museum of musical instruments in
   Nice.
   Finally, convinced by the quality of the scholarship and the rich
   programmes
   offered in the museum, Mr Gabriel de Broglie, chancellor of the
   Institut de
   France, put on long-term loan at the palais Lascaris the Fonds
   Tissier-Grandpierre, an important collection of historical instruments,
   especially famous for its precious series of harps.
   Since the summer of 2012, the citizens of Nice witnessed with
   astonishment
   the reversal of all the developments that had taken place throughout
   the
   previous years and that had been so remarkably conducted: the
   side-lining of
   the Organologist-Curator, the cancellation of the Axa and Ad Libitum
   long-term loans, the limiting or refusal of access to international
   scholars, the apparent halt to the scholarly programmes, research and
   publications, acquisitions and restorations, the increasingly scarce
   concerts on playable instruments from the collection. Today one has
   reason
   to worry that the palais Lascaris and its instruments could be left to
   fill
   more decorative rather than organological functions.
   We underline that, since the exhibition of the Gautier collection at
   the
   musAA(c)e MassAA(c)na (1935), all

Dana and others,

I forgot that you also mentioned Stanley Boorman's work on Petrucci.  His
book (800 pp.) is now finished and should be available very soon.  I recall
a publication date of April 22, or May 22, from Oxford University Press. 
My copy hasn't arrived yet.  That should be a very exciting book for many
of us.  And Stanley is such a good scholar.

Early Type Specimens in the Plantin-Moretus Museum

2005-05-13 Thread AJN (boston)
Dear Dana,

It's nice to see you back on line.  This message from Oak Knoll Press may
be of interest to you and others on the List. That publisher specializes in
works about book manufacture and bibliography.

 I don't know if this is the same type museum you were mentioning. The
famous one is thge Plantin-Moretus Museum in Antwerp. There is also a type
museum at Oxford University Press.  I've seen a short film that the Plantin
museum produced showing how type was made in the 16th century.  That museum
will be a must see whenever I get back to Antwerp.

The museum in Antwerp also has some specimens of music type, and perhaps
this new book will show more.  I wonder how it departs from Vervliet's
book, which you mentioned.  

Arthur.

RE: Early Type Specimens in the Plantin-Moretus Museum

Dear Mr Ness,

Early Type Specimens in the Plantin-Moretus Museum is now available at Oak
Knoll! 

This first edition work features one of the world's richest collections in
type specimens, many surviving nowhere else. They include types by
Garamond, Granjon, Van den Keere, Briot, Van Dyck, Kis, Fournier, Rosart,
Gille, Didot and many other masters from the fifteenth to the nineteenth
century. Since the Plantin-Moretus printing office acquired most of the
type specimens when new, moreover, the collection as a whole tells a story
in a way that collections assembled piecemeal in the nineteenth and
twentieth centuries cannot. Finally, the Museum's extraordinary archives
help to document the origins of many specimens.
 This first detailed catalogue of the Museum's specimens reports the
styles and sizes of type shown, describes the structures and paper stocks,
notes relations with other specimens in the collection and elsewhere, and
provides references to literature on many of the individual types shown.
 Preliminary notes on the type founders and printers who issued the
specimens include chronologies of the foundries and information on the
origins of their materials, sometimes supplemented with information about
the history of the firms and the genealogy of the founders. Nearly all of
the nineteen specimens illustrated at their original size appear here for
the first time, and extensive indexes make this book a powerful reference
tool for type specimen enthusiasts and printing historians. Contains 15
illustrations and 4 rare facsimile specimen sheets inserted in the inside
back cover. Co-published with The British Library. 

Check out Early Type Specimens in the Plantin-Moretus Museum at the
following link:

We also have many more titles with similar subjects. Check out the
following online catalogue to view our titles on Early Type Specimens.

Dear Martyn,

 Yes, I would be most grateful for the relevant page numbers in the  
original edition(s) -1568 and/or 1584.

The MacClintoc translation/edition is of the 1584 version. If I interprete
the listings of contents right, the talk about uneven fret placement and
tastini starts in page 155ff: Unequal frets on Lute and Viola to  provide
for major and minor semitones are an impertinence, and then page 162:
Frets added to the Lute, and their impertinence. What makes me wonder, is
that these page numbers seem to correspond also the pages of the
translation! And for ex. this 155ff is the _lower_ half of the  modern page
155! Could MacClintock really preserve the original page  numbering in the
translation?  Anyhow, please check that Martyn, and let  us know!

By the way, in the book there is lots of more interesting material of 
these matters than I wrote to the net in my page in 1995! That is only 
kind of teaser, actually... ;-)  And in the book there is also very much 
else to be studied!  I must put the book in the front of my reading list! 
Thanks for re-activating my interest to Il Fronimo! Perhaps I or others 
will inform the List of other intersting comments of music and lutes 
written by Vincenzo G.!

All the best,

Doesn't Renato Fasano and his Virtuosi di Wherever also play from memory?

As for Andre, I think his musicians play from memory because they are

Dear Arto, This is welcome news. And heartiest congratulations are due its

David van Ooijen, LGS newsletter editor,wrote that Taco's edition is
printed on good quality paper of the original size, it has a hard cover,
is cloth bound and has a translation of the original Latin dedication as
well as an extensive background of the composer and the musical content of
the book.  219 pages of music in French tabkature and mensural notation.
 The sources for the vocal works are also cited.

Van den Hove is a major Dutch lutenist-composer well deserving of this

the Vallet facsimile edition.  (And some other exciting things?)

Re: Sacred music for baroque lute

2005-02-26 Thread AJN (boston)
Dear David,

What wonderful news.  Have you decided what works you are going to play? 
Be sure to let us know when the recital will take place.  That must be a
magnificent place to play.  I have never heard about  any lute music there.
 But the library is filled with manuscripts of music sent from Vienna in
the time of Mozart and Haydn.  There is a dissertation on music at Me;lk by
Robert N. Freeman, now professor of musicology at the University of
California.

It is from him that I heard about the monks and minuets. He even had a
photo of the circular window from which the music circulated down to the
listeners.  You might look for it.  I recall a white plaster wall with a
window about a meter in diameter.

It's interesting how many pictures of performing orchestras will have the
musuicians on a balcony above the listeners.  I've never heard a concert
that way.

Now on the Sciurus, which is Latin for Eichhorn (Mr. Squirrel). 
Incidentally I followed Gernot's idea and found an Eichorn (one H) in the
Boston telephone directory.

Re: Sacred music for baroque lute

2005-02-26 Thread AJN (boston)
I followed Gernot's advi ce and checked the Boston telephone directory and
found one person,
Eichorn (one H--but the other was a misspelling on my part).

Anyway, Sciurus is Latin for squirrel.  And I was wondering if our Johann
Michael might have been named Eichhorn.  Often German composers changed
their names to be fashionable, e.g., Colombo for Daube, or Rossetti for
Rössler.  I notice now that there was a professor of Hebrew at the
University of Königsberg named Eichhorn who also used the pen-name Sciurus.

Anyway Sciurus was chamber musician and lutenist at the court of
Anhalt-Coethen from 1724 until about 1754, being appointed a few months
after J.S. Bach's departure..  Marcus mentions his book of chorales
arranged for lute, Canzoni devotti tradotti nell'liuto da me J[ohann]
M[ichael] Sciurius, 1742  Mus Ms 40151 in Cracow (formerly in Berlin), a
collection of over 200 chorales.  

They are rather intersting arrangements, because the chorales are adapted
to the lute, and are fairly easy pieces, mostly a bass line with the
melody.  But the spacing is such that the sound is fuller than one might
expect from such a thin texture. Most of chorales are taken from a
collection by Freylingshausen, and the lute arrangemets are often grouped
by key and function into suites.  

Thus a section of 6 Glaubens- und Liebes-Lieder on pages 68-73 are in g
and Bb, the next section of Liebes-Lieder (pages 74-79) are on d and F

One wonders for whom Sciurus penned this collection of pieces intended
probably for private devotionals.  Well, the cover carries a clue with the
embossed initials C. A. A. Pr. D.' A.  / 1740.

The book was for Christina Anna Agnera Princesse of Anhalt-Cöthen.  She
also played the harpsichord and had been a student of J. S. Bach when he
was director of music at Cöthen.

Markus also mentions a book of charales into which Wilhelm Friedrich Rust
added the lute part for one of his three sonatas for lute and violin.  The
chorales are in a different hand, and I doubt they are by Rust.  He surely
was an important and noted composer.  And had quite a grandson, also named
Wilhelm.  The grandson re-wrote some of his grandfather's music changing it
so that it sounded like Beethoven.  The grandson then claimed that his
granfather was the source for Beethoven's musical style.  Alas he was found
out, and Der Fall Rust (The Rust Case) was quite a musical scandal
around 1902.

Rust was Kapellmeister at the duchal court of Anhalt-Dessau.  And who was
duchess of Anhalt-Dessau?  Our Bach/Sciurus student, Christina Anna Agnera.
 So the sonatas were also probably written for her.

Re: Sacred music for baroque lute

2005-02-25 Thread AJN (boston)
The lute books seem to have been for personal use, Pater (later Abbot)
Herman Kniebandl, for example.  But there are sacred pieces in two of the
books from Gruessau (Mss 2009?? and 2011 now in Warsaw).  I imagine the use
of secular music in the monasteries may have been local option.

The magnificent mountainside Monastery at Melk maintained an orchestra in
the 18th cen. which played for visitors from a hidden room.  (e.g., the
emperor stayed at Melk while travelling). (The sounds issued through a
circle-shaped window above the banquet hall. Otherwise secular music was
apparently prohibited the monks, with one exception.  Every year the monks
were bleed, and for a few days thereafter the orchestra was permitted to
play minuets while the monks recuperated..

But the question is an interesting one.  That is, secular music in sacred
places. As well as sacred music in secular places.  Now about Johann
Michael Sciurius aka? Eichörnchen?  Is that a valid German family name?
