2018-02-08 Thread Jarosław Lipski
Thanks Ron,

Yes, I agree in this matter. We can’t be sure about Burwell’s intentions.  
In general she seems to contradict herself from time to time. For example once 
she writes: „Gaultier of England is excellent, for the goodnes of his hands 
the most swift the neatest and most even that ever were.” In other place she 
comments: "English Gaultier was fit to play in a Cabarett because of his 
thundering way of playing”. One explanation could be that she had mixed 
feelings about his way of playing, the other that this must be due to the 
additional bass courses of his lute and their extra length which French masters 
rejected (since they overemphasised the bass) - Jacques played 12c lute with 
extended bass strings which might seem extraordinary for her.
I also agree that probably not all pieces composed by Gaultier in Cherbury lute 
book have to be attributed to Jacques, on the other hand just because Jacques's 
contribution in lute music at the court was huge, the chances are that 
considerable percent of them are his original compositions. And this is in line 
with what Matthew Spring writes in 
"The lute in Britain": „ It is not exaggeration to say that Jacques Gaultier 
dominated solo lute music at the Caroline court until its removal to Oxford in 
1642. He is mentioned by Herrick in several of his poems, and all subsequent 
writers on lute music in England such as Mace and the author of the Burwell 
Tutor single him out as the most influential lutenist at the English court at 
this time”. And later: „ His lute music would seem to have had considerable 
circulation in manuscript.”
Obviously I also respect your views, and probably we have to wait with final 
explanations until new convincing data is discovered.

My best regards to you and Donna

Jean-Marie,

This is a vast subject for a long debate. To judge a man’s behaviour from 17th 
century and predict probability of its consequences is not a trivial matter. As 
historian Miles Fairborn says that: „impossible, strange and bizarre are less 
so when placed in their proper context. This is one of the goals of the social 
historian - to endeavour to see the past from the native’s point of view.”
In other words if we want to asses if certain facts which may seem shocking to

This kind of things we could call accidents, but one has to remember that 
duelling was legitimate since around year 501, when King of Burgundy codified 
the duel as a judicial combat (so called Gombette law). It was seen as a tool 
to tame criminality. Duels have a long tradition especially in France, so I’ll 
stop here, but one thing is relevant to Gaultier’s story. Henri IV’s edicts of 
1602 and of Fontainebleau registered at parliament on 26th June 1609 making 
duelists guilty of the crime of lèse majesté (offence against the crown). Louis 
XIII went on this direction and tried to stop duelling altogether. The 
declarations of Louis XIII on 1 July 1611, 18 January and 4 March 1612, 1 
October 1614, 14 July 1617 and 26 June 1624,

2018-02-06 Thread Jean-Marie Poirier
Just a reminder : 
Jacques Gaultier fled to England c. 1617 because he had murdered a noble man on 
the Continent.
As early as 1618 he was imprisoned in the Tower of London for no clear reason...
He got away with it and managed to get appointed as one of Henriette-Marie's 
musicians in 1625 and thrown into the Tower again in 1627,
for more serious reasons this time. Here is what Alvise Contatini, the Venitian 
Ambassador in London, reposrts to the Doge and the Senate :

"A certain Frenchman, a lute player, Gotiers by name, who was in the Queen's 
service, has been put in the Tower. It seems he proposed to 
murder the duke [of Buckingham], as they say they found a pistol on him. 
Really, however, he traduced the king himself and the duke and 
boasted that by the dulcet tones of the lute he could make his way even into 
the royal bed and he had been urged to do so in a manner that 
became well-nigh nauseous. This fellow will not escape lightly, as the king 
himself has examined him, assisted solely by the duke, extreme 
vigour and secrecy being observed owing to the nature of the charges."

He, again, managed to got way with it !

Here is the conclusion to Ian Spink's article "Another Gaultier Affair", Music 
and Letters, vol. 45, IV, (Oct., 1964) p. 347 :

"From the accounts of the two ambassadors it seems clear that Gaultier was 
unpopular with everyone, and some tasteless boast or indiscreet 
behaviour may have come to the ear of someone in authority-or been conveyed 
there by an ill-wisher-and thence to the king. There were always 
those at court eager to discredit the queen's French servants, given the 
slightest opportunity, and opportunities were certainly not lacking, even 
genuine ones. In this case Charles and Buckingham acted at once to preserve the 
queen's honour, and their investigations probably uncovered some 
relatively harmless but nevertheless unsavoury scandal. Gaultier himself seems 
to have emerged with his professional reputation at least unimpaired."

I can hardly imagine a person like Herbert of Cherbury, a personal friend of 
Buckingham, getting along with this "boisterous" character...

And, by the way, one of the first musicologists to be interested in Jacques 
Gaultier was Lionel de La Laurencie, in his article "Le Luthiste Jacques 
Gaultier", 
La revue musicale, n°3 (1924) pp. 33-39, more than thirty years before Mr 
Dart...

And, yes, Jacques was no relation of Ennemond "de Lyon", Pierre "de Rome" or 
Denis "de Paris" - Ennemond's "cousin" - who was anyway too young 
to be concerned by Cherbury's manuscript...

Best,

Jean-Marie
PS : Thank you Jaroslaw for intereting remarks about Cherbury but no clear 
evidence of their possible relationship, not clearer anywan than with Ennemond
in Paris or in England, where old Gaultier was a star at court after his visit 
which must have been earliuer than the usually announced 1630, as he was 
a protégé of Buckingham who paid him lavishly to encourage him to stay longer 
at the court, but was assasinated in 1628 ! So he must have visited several
times, including 1630 for the "birth of the Prince of Wales" on behalf of Marie 
de Medicis, his patroness and the mother of Henriette-Marie...

[LUTE] Re: Cherbury lute book - Gautier Son adieu

2018-02-04 Thread Stephan Olbertz
Dear Markus,

your web catalogue is indeed a great resource, so valuable to many, so thank
you very much again. I must say, that I recently had some trouble to find
the few compositins ascribed to Sigismund Weiss, as his name was abbreviated
in the catalogue. Maybe one could fix that? Also, concerning another search,
I noticed some false keys here and there, but was to busy (or lazy) to write
them down for you. I try harder next time!
regards
Stephan

Hi Alain,
yes it's true, the table "Available Manuscripts" gets more and more
complicated, as now there are more than 400 manuscripts.
But I fear, an own page for that still would be very/too? complicated.

As soon as I have time for it, I will try to put the manuscripts in a
sidebar with only showing the manuscripts of one country (or first
letter)  only.
And it also would be a good thing to have the manuscript table, that is
intern, searchable.
But to add this, I also will need some time.

The easiest way to find pieces or manuscripts often is to use the filtering
feature:

Firstly got to "Manuscripts", the click on "Show Filters"
There you can search for
- the title you are looking for e.g. "Son Adieu" or "Son Ad"
- the manuscript that you are looking for via the beginning of the signature
e.g. "GB-Cf"
- or for a certain Composer etc.

Normally you can use the beginning of the phrase, or even a part within a
word, so f.i. "dieu" also will show the searched piece on place 9 (17
entries).
The filters normally are case-sensitive!

The manuscripts always use the RISM signatures, that have the country first
(in this case GB), then a hyphen, and after it the city (C for
Cambridge) and then the short signature for the museum: Fitzwilliam Museum =
fm; so that it is complete: GB-Cfm After that Peter and me always use a
shortened number of the complete signature. The complete signature or title
will be given at the beginning of a manuscript or print.

The prints have normally the composer, often shortened, and a shortened
title of it; or a year: e.g. Dowland-Var for Robert Dowland: Varietie of
Lute Lessons

I think it is necessary to play around with the site some time to
understand, how everything works!

But after some exercise nearly everything can be found quite swiftly!
Even sometimes new concordances can be found by filtering the incipits!

. and if someone finds the site too complicated, he is invited to write to
me, and I will see, if I can help or if it is possible to make it easier (if
I have the time to do)!

Best regards
Markus

2018-02-03 Thread Alain Veylit
Thank you Matteo for spotting those omissions. I added the missing 
prelude ( f.37v/2. ) and  Volt by Jacob (f86v/2.) as an erratum on the 
project page. I was unable to read the title of #242 from the facsimile 
I had.


It seems to me that the other piece you mention "Pavan of the 
Composition/ of mee Edward Lord Herbert/ 1627 3to Martii;" is found on 
p.260 of the PDF transcription.

   Exactly, one has to distinguish between music and the person in

   collect Jaques music if he thought about it highly.

   As I wrote in my post Edward Herbert was collecting music during his
   life initially probably in form of sheet music which he copied later
   into his lute book, so exact attribution is very difficult. I never
   wrote that all the pieces titled Gaultier are identified. However, at
   least some of them seem to be composed by Jacques Gaultier, and this is
   not only mine and Thurston Dart's opinion.

   I know Paul's CD, but amateur doesn't mean ignorant, or worthless.
   Writing âamateur" I meant that he played and collected music not for
   money, but rather for his personal entertainment. And this is what he
   wrote about himself:
   âI attained also to sing my part at first sight in music, and to play
   on the lute with very little or almost no teachingâ¦my learning of

I know Paul’s CD, but amateur doesn’t mean ignorant, or worthless. Writing 
„amateur” I meant that he played and collected music not for money, but rather 
for his personal entertainment. And this is what he wrote about himself:

[LUTE] Re: Cherbury lute book - Gautier Son adieu

2018-02-03 Thread G. C.
   Dear Jaroslaw,
   You are quoting what Thurston Dart wrote in 1957. But Jean-Marie has
   convincingly mentioned the letter which proved that lord Herbert was
   involved in trying to get Jacques extradited back to France and
   therefore "would not likely collect music by him". Of course, this is a
   bit flimsy, as you could probably always distinguish between music and
   the person in question. Some of those Gaultier pieces in Cherbury were
   however published both in Besard and in Varietie, 1603 and 1610
   respectively, and Jacques would have been only 3 and 10 years at that
   time, so not likely by him. There is of course a possibility that some
   of the pieces were by Ennemond and some by Jacques. Further research
   may prove this.
   As to the amateur status of lord Herbert, you only have to listen to
   O'Dette's CD to completely loose this presumption. Many of the pieces
   in the manuscript, are magnificent and highly professional and require
   a high degree of dexterity to perform.

 On the other hand Lord Cherbury was an amateur lute player and he

Dudes... I just tried to play some Diomedes Cato pieces from this 
amazing collection...
That's incredible stuff, I had shyed away from it, but it was really 
worth trying.

What was he on when he wrote this?
Vodka? Or did they also smoke weed?...
It's like Alberto on steroids. Lots of colouring and beautiful entries, 
using the whole scope of what you can fret on a lute, but always in a 
hand-friendly way (for pros, not for me).
The "Prélude des Préludes", despite being the first piece, seems to be a 
statement in title, similar to the "Ultimate Passamezzo" of Terzi...
(a piece which is really worth a look by the way, if you like quirky 
stuff). This is the Mother of Preludes.

Thanks everyone for your quick responses - all of it very useful.

Jean-Marie, il y a encore une grosse zone d'obscurite et je ne mettrais 
pas ma main au feu sur cette attribution. J'ai fini par trouver 5 
concordances sur le site de Peter. L'attribution a Gothier dans un des 
manuscrits n'aide pas beaucoup... Qui sait, on se posera peut-etre le

   There are two possible connections between Cherbury and Ennemond

   was acting as English ambassador at court when Ennemond moved there ca.
   1620.  Yet Ennemond was apparently stingy when it came to sharing his

Hi Alain,
yes it's true, the table "Available Manuscripts" gets more and more 
complicated, as now there are more than 400 manuscripts.

But I fear, an own page for that still would be very/too? complicated.

As soon as I have time for it, I will try to put the manuscripts in a 
sidebar with only showing the manuscripts of one country (or first 
letter)  only.
And it also would be a good thing to have the manuscript table, that is 
intern, searchable.

But to add this, I also will need some time.

The easiest way to find pieces or manuscripts often is to use the 
filtering feature:


Firstly got to "Manuscripts", the click on "Show Filters"
There you can search for
- the title you are looking for e.g. "Son Adieu" or "Son Ad"
- the manuscript that you are looking for via the beginning of the 
signature e.g. "GB-Cf"

- or for a certain Composer etc.

Normally you can use the beginning of the phrase, or even a part within 
a word, so f.i. "dieu" also will show the searched piece on place 9 (17 
entries).

The filters normally are case-sensitive!

The manuscripts always use the RISM signatures, that have the country 
first (in this case GB), then a hyphen, and after it the city (C for 
Cambridge) and then the short signature for the museum: Fitzwilliam 
Museum = fm; so that it is complete: GB-Cfm
After that Peter and me always use a shortened number of the complete 
signature. The complete signature or title will be given at the 
beginning of a manuscript or print.


The prints have normally the composer, often shortened, and a shortened 
title of it; or a year: e.g. Dowland-Var for Robert Dowland: Varietie of 
Lute Lessons


I think it is necessary to play around with the site some time to 
understand, how everything works!


But after some exercise nearly everything can be found quite swiftly!
Even sometimes new concordances can be found by filtering the incipits!

.. and if someone finds the site too complicated, he is invited to 
write to me, and I will see, if I can help or if it is possible to make 
it easier (if I have the time to do)!


Best regards
Markus

2018-02-02 Thread Rainer

This reminds me of a gig in Essen ages ago with Mark Wheeler's Pantagruel.

They were wearing (sort of) period costumes which looked great on Hannah and 
not so great on the boys.

One of the songs was Stingo (I think from one of the Playford books)

Now I understood why there was an open bottle on the stage labelled "Stingo".
Being a good friend of Mark in those days and sitting in the first row I stood 
up - during the performance - and smelled at the bottle.

Believe it or not - it contained beer.

   And Jacob Reys (1545 - 1605) "never played so well as when he was
   drunk" according to contemporary documents. No reports of any "stoned"
   luteplayers though, although they have apparently found traces of both

   I was not aware of lord Herbert's Jacques Gaultier extradition letter
   (found on Alain's site). The fact that some of the pieces have
   concordances in both Besard (1603) and Varietie (1610), also exclude
   Jacques.
   By the way, Alain, you should look at the concordances by Peter Steur
   to update those on the Fandango Cherbury page, where the ms. is not too

[LUTE] Re: Cherbury lute book

2018-02-01 Thread Jean-Marie Poirier
Marijuana notwithstanding ;-), Ballard and Gaultier’s parallel lives and 
careers are quite symptomatic of the change of style and technique which 
characterized their time. 
Ballard was lucky to have a brother who was a royal printer, which gave him 
access to the select world of printed edition, a chance Gaultier never had 
before his cousin Denis decided to print some of “his” music, ( but what was 
Denis’s part in the restitution of this music, we will never know) decades 
after Ennemond’s death at Nèves in Dauphiné. This certainly makes a big 
difference in the way we apprehend the works of these two giants. 
Gaultier is said to have been illiterate which is perhaps one of the reasons he 
could never have his works printed and no autograph version of some of his 
pieces can be found... 
I do love Ballard’s music, of course, but I simply try to defend Gaultier’s 
contribution in the old tuning repertoire and such pieces as Gaultier son 
Adieu, or Les Larmes, or Courante sur si j’avais brisé mes fers, to name only a 
few, show that the two were on the same musical ground but their approach is 
very different. 
I would certainly never say one is “better” than the other. It simply wouldn’t 
make any sense. Instead I play both ;-) and others too like this underrated guy 
Lespine...
As for Jacob Polonois, another great, Paul Kieffer gave us a superb recording 
of his music a little while ago.

Happy plucking to all !

: the pieces by Jacob Polonois, the very unique ones by Hely 
Cuthbert, as well as some gems such as Gautier's Adieu Courant, 
Despond's Filou, pieces by Bacheler, etc. etc.  That manuscript is 
uniquely European in nature and it can therefore elicit interest and 
help from many angles and sources.


I am personally wary of a single printed edition - even if I recognize 
the unique advantages of the book format - and I would prefer to see it 
as a living and evolving project including a print copy (on non-acidic 
paper). Robert Spencer's facsimile editions in the 1980s were absolutely 
fundamental to the Early music revival movement. Those editions relied 
on new technology at the time, and I am convinced that were he to live 
today, Robert Spencer would be thrilled at all the new developments in 
publishing and looking at ways of using them efficiently and in novel 
ways. We cannot redo his job, we should further it and push it forward.


By the way, congratulations to the Cambridge digital editions - I was 
under the impression that the Cherbury book would be following on the 
Holmes MS but it does not seem to be the case...


Sorry if I was a tad long on the topic. If curious, you can check 
http://fandango.musickshandmade.com/projects/view/2. For the authors and 
pieces indexes you will need a free account to the site.

want a black and white, readable version of Cherbury you can find it on
Sarge Gerbode's website, but there are no concordances and you have to
have a table, play from your computer screen or print it out.
Meanwhile for those who love films and digital versions of lute music,
plans are afoot for the whole LSA Microfilm Library to be digitized and

Dear Nancy,
Many years ago the only way to obtain copies of many of these MSs was
to pay for a microfilm copy which the collections often then seemed
willing to make. Some 20/30 years ago the late, and much missed, Donald
Gill gave me a photocopy of Cherbury printed from such a microfilm.
Legibility is not good but is quite passable under decent illumination.
My point in mentioning this is that if a decent facsimile is not
forthcoming shortly, then players could always explore this
possibility. When I archived Donald's collection I didn't find this
microfilm so presumably he borrowed a microfilm - perhaps from the Lute
Society or Lute Society of America
regards
Martyn
PS I also very much agree with Ron: I find paper copies superior to
trying to read these things from a screen - also with the added
advantage that I can turn corners over to mark pieces I find
particularly notable and can pencil concordances and other observations
in the margins.  M.

there were concordances in the CNRS edition of Vieux Gaultier

that one could easily identify the style of music in that edition
 and
compare to the sparse style of the Herbert pieces attributed to
Gaultier.   From a player's point of view, I feel a very strong
similarity, and one only has to supply ornamented repeats in the
 proper
style to flesh out the bones of these pieces and make some very
 fine
music.

 There is already quite a bit of work done by John H. Robinson
 regarding a number of pieces by Gaultier. It was the subject of
 a publication for the Lute Society back in 1997, a music supplement
 entitled Music in Vieil Ton by Gauthier. Not everything is there

 and, of course, I will try to give a few more concordances whenever

 In the meanwhile, here is a little video of a Preludium, anonymous

 a "Courrente Gautier" which appears in several European manuscripts
 of the 1620s or 30s...

 Although
it is acknowledged that it is very likely the music by Ennemond
surviving in d-minor tuning was adapted from other formats by
 Denis
Gaultier, the music is very sparse and transparent: no virtuoso
technical fireworks.   This only reinforces the fact that the
 music must
come to life through inspired performance that makes much of the
 spaces

Dear Göran,

I do certainly lean towards Ennemond, and most probably not Jacques, as 
Cherbury did not support the latter after he sought refuge in 
England to escape the King's justice and a certain death for the murder of a 
noble man in France ! Sorry Thurston ;-) !

In my recent article in the Lute 2014, (English Lute Society) which can also be 
downloaded from Academia (https://tinyurl.com/ydze2e2g) 
there is a note  (19) about this question, and I am grateful to Chris Goodwin 
for bringning this to my attention :
"François-Pierre Goy pointed out in a lecture to the Lute Society that Herbert 
was indeed
involved as ambassador in France in negotiations about Jacques Gaultier’s 
extradition, but
we have no proof that he personally knew him and, as he writes in a letter that 
the lutenist
fled to England ‘for haveing killed a brave French Gentleman and of a noble 
house in a most
base fashion’, he may not even have wished to be acquainted with a man for whom 
he must
have felt a deep contempt (Lute News, forthcoming). This may be a good reason 
to suppose
that Lord Herbert would not have made an effort to collect Jacques Gaultier’s 
music."

If some of the pieces by "Gauthier" in the Cherbury Book can be regraded as 
"pedestrian", an opinion which I do not share ;-), don't

[LUTE] Re: Cherbury lute book

2018-02-01 Thread Rainer

I had the privilege of viewing and handling Dd.2.11 and Dd.5.78.3 in Cambridge.
I went to the library with Ian Harwood who had discovered that Holmes was the 
scribe of these and other manuscripts and was, of course, well known.

I did not have to wear gloves and it was allowed to open the manuscripts in - 
shudder -sunlight.

The back of Dd.2.11 was broken and there was a slip of paper inserted by Ian 
complaining about this.

The state of the manuscripts was surprisingly good - especially Dd.5.78.3.

In this days accessing the originals was the only means to check details, which 
I did for my Holborne edition.

Today, with this fabulous colour facsimile, the situation has changed 
dramatically.

By the way, Ian was wonderful and ridiculously chaotic. The whole house was 
covered with open books and XEROX copies.
In order to eat we had to keep the trays on our knees. There was not a single 
table not covered with more important things like journals, notes, ...

Ah, yes, somewhere there was a cat toilet but unfortunately the cat was very 
shy.

In my eyes Ian was a wonderfully old-fashioned British gentleman.

Rainer

PS: The house had a name: "The old coach house"

PPS: When we went to the railway station I saw a sign reminding of George 
Chapman.
I said that - of course -I didn't know Chapman was born in Hitchin.

Ian said he had asked the local Shakespeare Society if they would try to 
convince the local theatre to perform one of George Chapman's plays.
The answer was George who?

PPS: The weather was bad :)

   When looking at the Gaultier pieces in Cherbury, I recall a recent

   All these pieces are very short and I must say rather pedestrian, and
   not indicative of the great fame of Ennemond. Thurston Dart in his 1957

   Lucky you, Leonard.   Another library non-experience.  I can't recall
   exactly what I went to the Newberry to examine.  I think it was
   something for Sylvia Minkoff. (It'll come to me soon, but examining the
   lute book in person was essential.) I had a modest travel grant from
   the Newberry itself, and spent a day or two with the manuscript.  I
   recall a librarian was very helpful.  For example, he found a
   flashlight and held it while I drew and measured the watermarks.

   And I finished and had a few moments for "recreation" before I left for
   the railroad station.

   "Before I leave, could I take a quick look at the Capirola Lute Book?"
   The once so helpful librarian responded, using the royal we, "We'd be
   pleased to let you look at a microfilm."

Just to add my voice to the chorus of people saying real books are 
important and easier to use.  I have all the content of the Cherbury MS 
(ancient faded photocopy), but I'm really interested in all the notes 
and concordances as well as having a nice clear copy (preferably 
hardback).  I have nearly all the Boethius Press facsimiles which Bob 
Spencer produced, and value them as much for the concordances as the music.

2018-02-01 Thread Martyn Hodgson
   Dear Nancy,
   Many years ago the only way to obtain copies of many of these MSs was
   to pay for a microfilm copy which the collections often then seemed
   willing to make. Some 20/30 years ago the late, and much missed, Donald
   Gill gave me a photocopy of Cherbury printed from such a microfilm.
   Legibility is not good but is quite passable under decent illumination.
   My point in mentioning this is that if a decent facsimile is not
   forthcoming shortly, then players could always explore this
   possibility. When I archived Donald's collection I didn't find this
   microfilm so presumably he borrowed a microfilm - perhaps from the Lute
   Society or Lute Society of America
   regards
   Martyn
   PS I also very much agree with Ron: I find paper copies superior to
   trying to read these things from a screen - also with the added
   advantage that I can turn corners over to mark pieces I find
   particularly notable and can pencil concordances and other observations
   in the margins.  M.

This happened in mid 19th century, but of course this only affected

Today it is different. An event like that would probably destroy much

So - books are welcome!

As for expensive facsimiles:
If the books are very beautiful like the Hainhofer Books, the Capirola

"reduced" quality. I would have bought the Capirola fac already if it

Either you make it a very affordable simple edition, or make it a treat!
I think people have no need for expensive facsimiles that don't

   Sterling (hi!) remarked "Ya, I've been waiting decades now (I think)
   for the cherbury manuscript
   to be published."
   Why not try eons?
   How many years has Bob Spencer been gone? Twenty.  For decades he
   wanted to publish a facsimile
   of the Cherbury manuscript, but the aged music librarian at the FWM
   would not give permission.  It was probably
   No. 1 on Bob's list.
   Why?  The librarian's excuse was that the facsimile would attract
   hordes of readers wanting
   to see the original and it would be damaged.  Honest!!  Bob gave up and
   opined we'd just
   have to wait until the librarian "retired."  It is so nice to read
   the dedication to Bob's memory
   in the Holmes facsimiles.
   I experienced just the opposite with the Siena Lute Book.  It was a
   major source for the
   Francesco edition,* and I traveled to The Hague in order to see it in
   person.  It was in mint condition.  One
   might think it had been copied a few weeks before. Later I urged Mrs.
   Minkoff to publish a facsimile.
   In the meantime it got a bit messy from sweaty fingers. Twentieth
   century fingers. The museum
   library had set aside a special room where local lutenists could gather
   and pay directly from the
   manuscript.   I trust they use the facsimile these days.  Or perhaps
   they bring it out a few times
   each year just for he thrill of playing from the original.
   Then there was the time I visited our Boston Public Library to see
   Dowland's second book of ayres.
   They own the Countess of Bedford's dedication copy, all bound up in red
   leather with embossed
   gold decorations.  It was brought out by a page wearing white cotton
   gloves.  He stood behind me,
   leaned over and turned the pages when I nodded.

   arthurjn...@verizon.net
   *The best readings were in the Siena Ms.  I was nearing completion when
   I discovered Siena, and I had
   to recopy several pieces to incorporate Siena's superior readings.
   That was troublesome because the
   original plan to use my penned copy and I had to use ruled beams and
   barlines. I paid $100 for the pen.
   As a student I earned pocket change by copying music, and acting as the
   amanuensis for a Hollywood
   ASCAP composer who couldn't read music. He'd play his latest, and I'd
   write it down.  Ultimately the
   Press raised enough to pay for beautiful engravings were done in
   Japan.  My classmate Masakata

[LUTE] Re: Cherbury lute book

2018-01-31 Thread Tristan von Neumann
Here's my thoughts: I would recommend buying books anytime, and printing 
tabs.

But the reason is quite different from those of most of you I guess.

It is very simple: You never know when there is such a sun storm that 
all electric stuff is going to be destroyed.
This happened in mid 19th century, but of course this only affected 
telegraph business.
Today it is different. An event like that would probably destroy much of 
the electric infrastructure, basically going back to ancient times.

I am not kidding here.

So - books are welcome!

As for expensive facsimiles:
If the books are very beautiful like the Hainhofer Books, the Capirola 
Manuscript or some prints, it's probably not attractive to have a 
"reduced" quality. I would have bought the Capirola fac already if it 
wasn't either B/W or double pages.

Either you make it a very affordable simple edition, or make it a treat!
I think people have no need for expensive facsimiles that don't display 
the beauty of the original.

I HEARTILY second Ron's sentiments. And yes, I got stuff on the hard 
drive going nowhere. Last big download project was Miguel de Fuenllana's 
magnificent opus- well over 300 pages- I spent literally hundreds of 
dollars on all the paper and ink cartridges necessary for this, and then 
had to collate & get it all bound- three volumes! (Ironic note, I used 
to do offset lithography for a living).


I really, really miss good old "Books of Music" - yes, I want the 
Herb-Cherb! (and a few others)

[LUTE] Re: Cherbury lute book

2018-01-31 Thread Hector Sequera
Good afternoon,

In reply to the original question, the Lute Society just sent an email to its 
membership to assess whether or not there is any interest on this. Your reply 
to the message below may determine the fate of this project. If interested 
simply reply to the secretary at: lute...@aol.com 

Here is the original message sent this morning to the LS list:

———————————————

1. HERBERT OF CHERBURY LUTE BOOK FACSIMILE – WOULD YOU BUY A COPY?
 
We have been talking for some years about producing a facsimile of the Herbert 
of Cherbury lute book, the last great English renaissance lute manuscript, with 
music from 6 to 10 courses, but there have been delays.
 
We don’t need prepayments or subscriptions but we need to have some idea of 
demand – especially as sales of facsimiles are less than they were, with some 
much available online.
 
If a facsimile of the Herbert of Cherbury lute book were similar in format to 
our beautiful Dd.2.11 facsimile, and similar in price - £50 to members - WOULD 
YOU VERY PROBABLY BUY A COPY? PLEASE REPLY TO THIS EMAIL TO LET US KNOW!
 
And let us know if this would be too expensive, but you would buy simple, say, 
black and white reproduction, for, say £25.

————————————————

Best wishes,

Hector
