   Dear Mimmo,

   No problem at all about the duration of sound with your strings. I
   agree with Bruno Cognyl-Fournier : we are all very grateful -  or we
   should be -  for your brilliant a d continuous efforts to improve the
   quality of synthetic strings and the discussion about Mersenne and all
   that is only a way to satisfy our scholarly egos 😉!  But please keep up
   the good work and thank you again for everything you do to help us
   pluckers to improve our performances of early music!

   Best wishes da Francia,

   Jean-Marie

  maybe it is better to give you guys a few more informations:
  yes, I am out of stock  due to some problems: the first one is that
   the
  plastic blend nd copper powder changes some behaviours. This is
   common
  when one exstrude plastics.  I worked hard  to understand  why in
   these
  15 days and then when I was able to realize why, guess that? The
  extruder broke the gear pump!  heck. Just yesterday (yes, Sunday)  I
  was in condition to find another way  that is working pretty good
  but... my co-worker at the extruder  right now  has flu!  another
  stopah ah. Do not worry: tomorrow I will do this job alone.
   their
  lifetime?  I think that they last forever. I am sorry, the sound do
   not
  last 20 seconds

Fascinating thread! I am delighted that after over 40 years in the
lute "business" (even mostly amateur) that good bass strings may
   be
emerging as an obtainable, affordable,  predictable, and PRACTICAL
reality. Mimmo Peruffo is to be congratulated for all his work
   over
all these years.
Now, can anyone tell me if the new basses are now  available in
   the
U.S?
Thank you all-

  Very interesting David.
  It may be simply a fashionable couple wanting to be portrayed
  performing but in fact unable to play a note! Perhaps the painter
   who,
  as you point out, might be thought to have known better was laughing
   up
  his sleeve...
  Or perhaps, and maybe more likely (the painter might not have wished
   to
  be later seen to make fools of his rich clients), they had insisted
   on
  this sort of pose (it certainly looks very stylised especially with
   the
  young lady's eyes turned to heaven etc) and their insistence
   overcame
  any scruples the painter may have expressed about depicting them
  actually playing. In short, the very act of posing for the picture
   was
  the statement rather than the playing of music.
  regards
  Martyn

   I think the terms 'common' and 'replete' are very exaggerated for 19th

   almost only in Viennese/Austrian solo repertoire, not in French or
   Spanish music. For it to work you need a guitar with a very thin neck,
   and it still messes up your left hand technique (in my experience,
   playing on original 19th C French & Viennese guitars).

   Perhaps there are two distinct dances whose names sometimes merge:
   1. Pavane: From the word 'pavo' meaning peacock. This would suggest a
   stately dance (duple time).
   2. Paduan: From 'Padua (triple time)

   There are paduane / padovane etc. examples of the type PAVAN  (duple
   time), and there are those others which are in triple time and the
   first
   dance after the passemezzo. One should go to Padova and ask the mayor.
   Grove mentions that - in contrast to the Pavan type - there is no
   preserved choreography for the padovana in triple meter.
   With a temperature of 34 degrees in Brussels the pavan ist the only
   survivable dance for the moment :-)

   Dear Benjamin,
   London Pro Musica has an edition of 22 of the madrigals (the ones
   intabulated in Venice, 1536). Just search their catalogue for the
   following:
   MA3 PHILIPPE VERDELOT, Twenty-two Madrigals, for four voices or
   instruments. This volume contains all the pieces that appeared arranged
   for lute in the Intavolatura de li Madrigali di Verdelotto da cantare
   et sonare nel lauto (Venice, 1536), which is published complete in our
   RM3. Verdelot was much respected during his lifetime for his ability to
   express the different moods of his texts, and so it is no surprise to
   find here an outstanding collection of highly varied pieces. Score only
   -L-8.50
   RM3 Intavolatura de li Madrigali di Verdelotto (1536) for voice and
   lute. This important collection contains twenty-two of Verdelot's most
   exquisite madrigals arranged fastidiously for voice and lute. It is
   fact the only surviving publication of its kind, and fills a huge hole
   in the repertoire for voice and lute. The original four-part versions
   of these madrigals can be found in our MA3; as the two volumes have
   been edited in conjunction, it is possible to use the lute part with
   the ensemble versions. Score only -L-10.50
   All best,
   Hector

  intabulated in Venice, 1536). Just search their catalogue for the
  following:
  MA3 PHILIPPE VERDELOT, Twenty-two Madrigals, for four voices or
  instruments. This volume contains all the pieces that appeared
   arranged
  for lute in the Intavolatura de li Madrigali di Verdelotto da
   cantare
  et sonare nel lauto (Venice, 1536), which is published complete in
   our
  RM3. Verdelot was much respected during his lifetime for his ability
   to
  express the different moods of his texts, and so it is no surprise
   to
  find here an outstanding collection of highly varied pieces. Score
   only
  -L-8.50
  RM3 Intavolatura de li Madrigali di Verdelotto (1536) for voice and
  lute. This important collection contains twenty-two of Verdelot's
   most
  exquisite madrigals arranged fastidiously for voice and lute. It is
  fact the only surviving publication of its kind, and fills a huge
   hole
  in the repertoire for voice and lute. The original four-part
   versions
  of these madrigals can be found in our MA3; as the two volumes have
  been edited in conjunction, it is possible to use the lute part with
  the ensemble versions. Score only -L-10.50
  All best,
  Hector

 Greetings one, greetings all,
  
 I am wondering if there may not perhaps be a good edition of
  Verdelot
 madrigals with intabulations for lute?
 I have just been contacted for a project, but I don't know the
   lute
 sources (if any) of this repertoire well at all.
 Any thoughts?
 All best wishes,
 Benjamin

2014-12-17 Thread jmpoirier2
   Agreed David on the possible variations in the tempo but the scant
   evidence points towards something rather light and not the heavy pulse
   of later baroque say from the Versailles period. Early baroque was a
   different world altogether...

Yes, certainly a reasonable request.  And yes, that is what I intended to say.
My response to Thomas Walker's request is:  evidence of historical practice woul
d most likely take the form of evidence gleaned from dancing masters of how the
dance itself was to be done.  So...go to the dancing masters for that.

As to what I intended to say, just exactly what performance tempo meant to a lon
e lutenist in the early 17th century I couldn't say, but I'm sure there was plen
ty of variety in the ways dance pieces were interpreted in the absence of any st
ructured environment involving dancers.  I took the issue raised to be:  early
 sources as a guide to contemporary performance tempi.  Hence the reference to a
 recording by Bailes.

I could be completely wrong here;  I'm treading on ground I know very little abo
ut.  But surely dance music is every bit as ambiguous as, say, ricercars and fan
tasias.  Or was there actually a set tempo for all sarabandes performed between
1610 and 1640?  If so, there's the answer to Thomas Walker's question.  My thoug
ht is that I'm sure there must have been slight variations...and in the absence
of metronome markings even the original sources would have been ambiguous on the
 subject.

 Ron did not say there was no relationship whatever between playing and danci
ng a sarabande.  He used the word adapted.  Within the parameters of the dance
 itself, I agree with Ron entirely:  yes in answer to MH's question.  Given wh
at we know about the performance of other dances, for example galliards:  defini
tely yes.  The original question concerned specifically the French school of
1610-1640 and mentions specifically Ballard.  During that period sarabandes wer
e frequently danced when an entree was called for.  Do you have a specific metro
nome marking for playing all of Ballard's Entrees?  I hope not.  The dancing mas
ters of the time characterized the sarabande variously as brisk or slow:  it can
 be danced equally well either way, within the floor-plan description of the dan
ce itself.  It was also considered scandalous.  Do you have a tempo for scand
alous?

 There is also some confusion here regarding the execution of sarabandes with o
r without dancers present.  On stage, with no dancers present, I suggest that th
e player is perfectly free to choose whatever tempo he wishes.  In his efforts t
o preserve an era in which no metronomes existed, I would say that the player is
 free to play sarabandes as scandalously as he wishes.

 Hello Thomas:
 A good modernish source of information can be found in D. J. Buch,
   The
 Influence of the Ballet de cour in the Genesis of the French Baroque
 Suite, Acta Musicologica, Vol. 57, Fasc. 1 (Jan. - Jun., 1985), pp.
 94-109.  The saraband is discussed on page 102.
 Since so much 17th-century lute music consisted of boiled-down
   versions
 of popular dance tunes, it important to know how a particular dance
 worked in it's original context.  Then one has to realize that, since
 lutes are and were inaudible when dancer's feet scrape the floor, the
 music is adapted and performed in whatever manner the player wishes.

Re: Re: Lute-painting on eBay

2004-01-30 Thread jmpoirier2

I consider this painting on Ebay is just another piece of evidence to demonstrate that 
left-handed players DID exist and play even the 17th century.
Jean-Marie Poirier (another 20th century left-hander) ;-)))

(By the way it could be fun to know how many of us play the other way round, just to 
get rid of all underhand attacks on left-handed playing)


I am suspicious. Looks too much like Arto Wikla.
RT
 there is a strange old portrait of a left-handed
 lute player up for auction at:

 Amused,
 
 Arne.
