[LUTE] Lute Repair Needed Near Phoenix, AZ
html head meta http-equiv=Content-Type content=text/html; charset=utf-8 /head body dir=auto div blockquote type=citefont color=#00span style=-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);I have a 1968 David Rubio lute that is in need of some considerable repair in order to make it play well again. The top has split along the glue line for most of its length, and there were quite a few rattles internally, suggesting that the fan bracing (Rubio lutes have fan bracing) may be partially delaminated. The rattles have disappeared after being in Arizona for three years, but I suspect that they will return eventually unless something is done about them. The big issue on playability is the action. The entire body/neck structure has deformed and the action cannot be restored by lowering the saddle (Rubio lutes also have a saddle in the bridge, as well as metal frets) because the mounting holes for the strings are so high that the the strings would rattle if the saddle was lowered any more. The need for a low action comes from my affliction of chronic tendinitis that has plagued me for ~38 years. If anyone on this list feels they are capable of taking on this project or knows of someone who would be capable, please contact me.

[LUTE] Re: beginners, and practicalities of buying lutes
Indeed the price of new lutes is too low. I bought my Rubio in 1968 with excess money left over from a summer job while I was an undergraduate student. I was just astounded at how much craftsmanship I got for $600. Maybe that is why Rubio eventually quit making lutes and switched to harpsichords. A. John Mardinly, Ph.D., P.E.

I think mentioning lute makers or players by name, whether what you say about them is positive or negative, is just a bad idea - and arguably downright rude. If your comment is positive, someone reading it might wonder if you have an axe (sorry, no pun intended) to grind; if negative, your opinion is hard to judge and is almost inevitably biased and based on limited evidence. The price of a lute is difficult to make a judgement about. The price of new lutes is way too low - consider what a decent hand-made cello would cost! That's not because cello makers are greedy people, it's just that the price of a cello more accurately reflects the amount of work and expertise which goes into it. Even a cello maker earns less than a plumber or electrician. The price of secondhand lutes is more difficult. A good lute gets better with age, and perhaps the price should reflect that, but it's surprising how few people ask more than they paid, even if they've had the lute for a number of years. So sometimes there are excellent bargains to be had in the for sale columns. My site also has a page on buying a lute, including advice on what to look for in a secondhand lute.

[LUTE] Re: Strings for heavier lute
Charles; I had always used Pyramid strings on my Rubio Lute, and they sounded so great I tried them on my Velazquez guitar and they sounded terrible. I now use Savarez 520B on my guitar and they sound good enough-maybe I had it backwards! I should try Savarez guitar strings on my lute as soon as I get it back from Mel Wong. A.

I am in the latter group, with a 1977 Papazian. I have tried a variety of strings, and its the trebles that seem the toughest to get right. Too thick and they may snap, or be just impossible to tune (I'd be better with geared rollers I know), too thin and the instrument sounds thin and reedy. I suspect if I were to tune this beast in F it would solve a lot of problems, but am doing ensemble work mostly. That said, I have been discovering that low tension guitar strings work fine for the basses. E.g., a 4th string will serve as a 5th course nicely. I am going to try the same pattern: a 5th guitar string for the sixth course, and a sixth for the 7th and 8th fundamentals.A Currently I am using a KF 74 for the fourth which is surprisingly very good. I tried a guitar string 3rd, Carbon Fiber for the fifth course but it was awfully wimpy sounding. I was wondering if anyone else had ideas on this or has actually tried guitar strings as well and what the results were. I know the lutes vary widely, mine is 64 cm and I am keeping it tuned in G.

[LUTE] Re: Technique for friction at the nut.
I built a Roller Nut for my Rubio lute, which used wound Pyramid strings, many years ago. It was not too difficult because I had access to a dental drill that I used as a lathe. The rollers were delrin and the 'axle' was a piece of unwound piano string. It worked like a charm. I can send a photograph to anyone who is interested, although I do not have dimensions or assembly instructions at this time. A. John Mardinly, Ph.D., P.E.

I'll admit it's an assumption that could be false or you may be using a plastic of some sort. It would be helpful to know in any event. Using a string made up of coils that are harder than the nut material could well have printed those coils on the groove of the nut, especially if you have used a high tension or the nut is old or of soft material or it has sat a long time at tension. The nut we use for gut wasn't imagined to work this way with metal coils. The lute was designed with a bone/ivory/wood nut that is harder than the gut string. The gut spreads out to the smooth nut surface under tension and at no point does it dig in (I'm not sure a plastic string spreads like this but I doubt it). Using gut (and a little beeswax now and then) I have no trouble adjusting the pitch - assuming the strings and frets are true. Citterns, orpharions and bandoras that use metal strings have the lesser bend like the guitars you mention. It solves the bend/tension problem for the materials given. If you're inclined to use modern stringing and don't mind modern workarounds, you might consider a modern angle to accomodate it. Or maybe a steel nut ... and WD-40.

A side-benefit is that the peg stays pushed in longer, since the peg is turned so little. Of course, if you put loops on multiple strings, then you have a mass of loops from which it is difficult to find the one you need.

[LUTE] Lute in the Future-Another Kick in the #%^*+¥
I learned just Friday night that Arizona State University has recently banned the selling of CD's at concerts. I wonder what overpaid pinhead administrator thought up that idea to put on his performance review. Our wonderful Frank Koonce has brought a wonderful array of incredibly talented struggling young performers to ASU, and now they will be struggling even more. For those that lament that financing is difficult for struggling young musicians, I should add that it is difficult for struggling young anybody in an academic field. My brilliant young nephew with a Harvard Ph.D. in neurobiology is working full time for an annual salary of $35,000. Remember Jon Nakamatsu, who eventually won first prize in the Van Cliburn competition, worked as a high school teacher to support himself. The schools in the Phoenix, Arizona area are full of teachers with a Ph.D. in some instrument, teaching band or chorus, because that is the only music related employment they could find to support their families. My own brother, with a degree in composition, worked construction, building log homes for 20 years. My theory is that it all points to the sex, drugs and rock and roll culture (or lack thereof) that has permeated American life for decades. My own beloved home town Philadelphia Orchestra went bankrupt last year, and many others are on the verge. How many classical music stations are left? Very few, and now they are publicly supported! Americans on the whole just have little interest in supporting the arts. Unfortunately, that includes too many of our elected officials who year after year cut support for education, so that the schools continue to crank out graduates who can barely read or write. Don't be surprised that they value beer and pizza over Morley or Dowland. So, Chris, you are spot on in that the present system of support for arts and academia is badly broken.

Your project is worthy of support and you did an excellent job of describing the current dilemma for recording artists in accurate and diplomatic terms. Most people involved in the lute world, whether they are first-class players like you, or whether they simply enjoy the aesthetic of the instrument, simply don't even think about what it takes to produce a recording today. It's a different world than the fan club approach of the past, where top players were easily able to obtain academic appointments, research grants, artist representation, and recording contracts that actually paid for the session work, production, distribution and even royalties. Today, even the top players (with a few rare exceptions) are struggling with the cost of making recordings - which are almost always self-financed - and even musicians who record for reputable labels are paid in rather skimpy piles of their own CDs which must be sold at concerts if they want to make anything at all for their effort. Talented amateurs who have piles of the ready can make nice recordings without the worry of whether they should reproduce several cartons of their CD, or whether they should buy a sack of groceries this week and perhaps even pay the heat bill. Again, there is no reason why someone who simply appreciates lute music should have to think about the nuts and bolts of how their favorite recordings are made, but we can all be assured that it has nothing to do with the fairytale myth of merit. There are many deserving artists out there who should be heard and supported, but there is no longer a viable market model for financing and remuneration - especially with the unsustainable model of streaming services.

45 years ago my brand new lute had pages that tuned easily, but the wound strings would hang up on the nut. To cure that, I built a roller nut. After a few years in Michigan with humidity varying huge amounts between winter and summer, the holes got out of round, and tuning went back to being a real pain. I am looking forward to my Pegheads.

The lute was used and I had just gotten it. Chuck Herin, the PegHed guy is, by pure luck, only about 2 hours from me here in South Carolina. I drove the instrument to him, he made very small bore changes in the pegbox and installed them. Here are before and after pics of the lute's pegbox. The PegHeds cost $30 a piece. That adds up but what was it costing me to have a lute with 1/2 of the broken pegs missing and so unplayable, what would it have cost me to take it to a lute luthier and have new friction pegs turned and installed and how long would that have taken. Then I would have been back to friction pegs. Add both costs up and the PegHeds were a no brainer! I recommend them highly.

That is EXACTLY the way I do it on conventional pegs. And if I am using a nylon chantarelle, I even manually pull some tension on it before I tuck/wrap the tag end under the string going into the hole, and then pull the somewhat tightened string up onto the nut into its groove. (Outside peghole, of course). The only time I allow more wraps is when the peghole is centered, to get the tension closer (but not too close-binding!) to the inside cheek of the pegbox, where there will be less direct pulling force where the peg is most flexible. I can't understand why some people knot the strings at/in the pegbox- nothing but trouble.

Some lessons (in my case) are learned only by repeated experience. And gut winds around the peg differently than nylon; etc. Years ago I broke a stuck peg, forcing it when the string had wedged up against the inside cheek of the pegbox. My worst gripes about the PegHedz (even the ones that work well) are in fact about string changes. I do a fair amount of experimentation, changing out strings for different performance/pitch/tuning situations, and to try every damned new thing that Peruffo cooks up in his lab. Those things are worse than guitar machine heads for slow, awkward string changes- and lute pegboxes are not guitar heads. It is especially bad for the chantarelle- the one string for which anyone needs instant access. On my 8 course there is no-outside-the box option, and so I have to run that string to the last 4th course peg for proper angle accessability. Chuck Herin was no help at all on this; even though Dan Larson has some outside-the-box string hole pegheads I could not get Chuck to even understand what I wanted, it's not rocket science. A simple treble rider- just for a single 1st course- would be a good compromise.

[LUTE] Initials PS inside the belly of a Rubio Lute
Mel Wong has successfully removed (quite intact!) the top of my 1970 Rubio lute to re-attach the bracing. Next to the signed Rubio label is another label with the initials PS. Rubio was known to have numerous apprentices, the best known being Paul Fisher, I believe, but we do not know who was PS. Are there any suggestions out in the Lute Universe? A.

No iconography? On 9/14/[14]https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Lorenzo_Costa_-_Un_ concerto_(National_Gallery,_London).jpg Surely you've seen this painting by Lorenzo Costa; 5 course lute with three ebony frets beyond the gut frets. About 100 years before Mathia Mason. But, like 7 course lutes being mentioned in writings in the very early 16th century probably not typical or widespread. (Just popular enough for one real painter to get it on canvas, though). I believe there was a contemporary eye/ear witness who observed Francesco playing beyond the frets. Check the Francesco literature. I kept my own 6 course lute fretless beyond the last 8th gut for many years; really not hard at all to nail single notes with correct intonation if you bother to practice a little. In fact, you can get better intonation without those frets if you have to play course 3 or lower way down there. It's just another register with its own tone color. But I was too lazy to keep up, and wanted the clearer sound of fretted notes.

There is (as far as I know) no evidence for wooden body frets in iconography, and it seems they were not used until late in the 16th century (they are mentioned by Dowland, who says they were invented by Mathias Mason but probably didn't use them himself; and by Robinson, who probably did). I remember someone/somewhere says something about expert players playing above the frets with just as much facility as they do on the tied frets - can anyone remember who/where?

A major push for 432 came from none other than convicted mail fraud conspirator and 8-time fringe presidential candidate Lyndon Larouche, who defined "weird" in American politics until Donald Trump redefined it. Here's an excerpt from the Wikipedia page on Larouche; I can't vouch for its accuracy in all things: 1989: Musical interests and Verdi tuning initiative: LaRouche and his wife have an interest in classical music up to the period of Brahms. A motto of LaRouche's European Workers' Party, is "Think like Beethoven"; movement offices typically include a piano and posters of German composers, and members are known for their choral singing at protest events and for using satirical lyrics tailored to their targets.[152] LaRouche abhors popular music; he said in 1980, "Rock was not an accidental thing. This was done by people who set out in a deliberate way to subvert the United States. It was done by British intelligence," and wrote that the Beatles were "a product shaped according to British Psychological Warfare Division specifications."[153] LaRouche movement members have protested at performances of Richard Wagner's operas, denouncing Wagner as an anti-Semite who found favor with the Nazis, and called a conductor "satanic" because he played contemporary music.[154] In 1989 LaRouche advocated that classical orchestras should use a concert pitch based on A above middle C (A4) tuned to 432 Hz, which the Schiller Institute called the "Verdi pitch," a pitch that Verdi had suggested as optimal, though he also composed and conducted in other pitches such as the French official diapason normal of 435 Hz, including his Requiem in 1874.[155] The Schiller Institute initiative attracted support from more than 300 opera stars, including Joan Sutherland, Placido Domingo and Luciano Pavarotti, who according to Opera Fanatic may or may not have been aware of LaRouche's politics. A spokesman for Domingo said Domingo had simply signed a questionnaire, had not been aware of its origins, and would not agree with LaRouche's politics. Renata Tebaldi and Piero Cappuccilli, who were running for the European Parliament on LaRouche's "Patriots for Italy" platform, attended Schiller Institute conferences as featured speakers. The discussions led to debates in the Italian parliament about reinstating Verdi's legislation. LaRouche gave an interview to National Public Radio on the initiative from prison. The initiative was opposed by the editor of Opera Fanatic, Stefan Zucker, who objected to the establishment of a "pitch police," and argued that LaRouche was using the issue to gain credibility.[156] Here's a 1989 story about it from the Washington Post, which goes into some of the arguments: [12]https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/lifestyle/1989/05/27/lyndon- larouches-pitch-battle/756e0713-65eb-4059-90b2-037fd2f1f6e1/ To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html References 1. mailto:john.mardi...@asu.edu 2. tel:408-921-3253 3. tel:480-727-5651 4. tel:480-727-5652 5. tel:480-727-5653 6. tel:480-727-5654 7. tel:480-965-7946 8. x-apple-data-detectors://6/ 9. x-apple-data-detectors://6/ 10. mailto:howardpos...@ca.rr.com 11. mailto:edvihuel...@gmail.com 12. https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/lifestyle/1989/05/27/lyndon-larouches-pitch-battle/756e0713-65eb-4059-90b2-037fd2f1f6e1/

[LUTE] Re: Wetting Fingers
As another of those oulde guys, I remember distinctly how much my fingers perspired whenever I performed in front of an audience, and how dramatically how having cold wet fingers interfered with playing. Now that I am way over 60, my fingers don't perspire at all, and in Arizona they are not cold, and this terrible barrier to performing is completely gone. Now I just have to remember the notes.. A.

Definitely do not just claw as loudly as you can! Instead, play close to the bridge with (most importantly) an arched wrist so the weight of the hand depresses and releases the strings perpendicularly to the soundboard. This achieves the perfect balance of tone; the striking position near the bridge emphasizing higher partials, thus providing projection, while the hand weight and string depression simultaneously activates a fuller range of complementary overtones. Remember that baroque sources repeatedly use words like "powerful" (kraft) and "clear" (klar) to describe the sound of the lute. This must have been the ideal, judging from the number of concerti and other ensemble works that survive from the period. There is, for example, Zoffany's painting of the Sharp family in which a lute player (with curved wrist and pinky behind the bridge) is shown among an instrumental group featuring horns, oboes, serpent, cello, keyboards, etc. Toeschi also scored for a large ensemble including winds in his lute concerto. Of course, it helps to have sensitive string players in the group, too!

Ron; What I wanted to avoid was pain, misery and frustration. In 4 months of playing as much as possible every day (frustratingly not enough), I was hoping to at at least "condition" my LH fingertips (thick callousnesses not really needed, I thought) , but it just wasn't happening.

[LUTE] Re: Quick Callus
Martin;
Thank you for the word of caution. Actually, I am acutely aware of the
hazards of relentless practice. 40 years ago, I severely injured the
tendons of my left hand during a one-month-long burst of 8 hours per
day intense practice (half on large-scale Ramirez guitar), something
that is not 100% recovered today, and which requires soaking my left
hand in warm water for ~75 minutes (wearing a nitrile glove) every
morning, plus careful self monitoring for pain, which tells me when to
stop. The glove, I believe, minimizes damage to any callouses. So, now
my limit on practicing had been pain from beaten-up fingertips until I
found QuickCallus. Any, it is interesting feedback if indeed few if any
other lutenist experience this problem.
BTW, I use nylon strings, ~27 newton tension, and a very low action
such that there is some buzzing.
As for "mindless practicing", yes, that is a concern, so I take breaks,
much more so than when I was young. However, I do notice that it seems
to take longer to memorize things than it did when I was young, so
there is a second meaning to the phrase "mindless practice"
As for how much practice is necessary? I read an interview with Paul
O'Dette in which he stated he practiced 3.5 hours per day, and saw an
interview with Julian Bream in which he stated he practiced 8 hours per
day, so what is the right amount? I'm sure it varies with different
individuals, their abilities, available time, goals and reasons for
playing.

Dear John,
I don't know what tension you have on your lute, what kind of strings,
or how high the action is, but I suspect you may be pressing too hard.
If so, you want to go easy on that 4 hours per day routine, you could
do serious damage. I can think of at least one serious professional
lute player who wouldn't dream of doing more than two hours per day.
In any case the number of hours is not important, it's what you're
doing that matters. Mindless practicing of scales (for example) is not
helpful.
Best wishes,
Martin

The Molinaro is pretty easy for me. ~45 years ago I acquired a copy of the complete "Intavolatura Di Liuto" by Molinari. It is 115 pages of music all transcribed to guitar notation by Giuseppe Gullino and Piero Jahier in 1963. I have put "Il Conte Orlando in a Dropbox folder for anyone to help themselves. It is a delight to play-just pretend you are playing an 8 string guitar and everything falls in place nicely. I would love to get the source for Laura Soave, or any of the others, because the Molinari is all I have. [1]https://www.dropbox.com/sh/1w2zw4b2gv353s6/AACH4aNgoZSVf4Z1N4acFu4ta ?dl=0 A.

[LUTE] Re: Quick Callus
I do remember the days when I was a teenager that I needed to file
excess callous material from my fingertips. However, I am having just
the opposite problem today. Comments on the "QuickCallus" web site
suggest that many other players of string instruments have a similar
problem from time to time. In addition, it is suggested for rock
climbers, weight lifters, barefoot runners etc. Whatever, I have found
that it helps me immensely, and I just wanted to let other lute-listers
in on the secret if they felt they could benefit. For those that play
already completely free of fingertip discomfort, wonderful!

I passed this query on to Strings by Mail and got this response: We do ship to the UK. Shipping times do vary with IPA shipments and there is little tracking info. If you upgrade to USPS Priority the shipping time is much shorter and you will get tracking from door to door. Although you will pay 2 to 3 times as much. Also be aware there is not only an import taxes in the UK but you also have a Royal tax. Please check with your local custom agency to find out the regulations. A. John Mardinly, Ph.D., P.E.

Martin;
In the US, the Department of Transportation has enacted
rule DOT-OST-2014-0231-0001 which requires airlines to allow musical
instruments in overhead bins if there is room. That is,
the instruments must be allowed on board, and if there is room in the
overhead bins the instrument can go in there, and CANNOT
be removed to make room for suitcases. it is "first come, first
served",
but if there is no room, the instrument must be checked or the owner
can opt to re-schedule the flight. Purchasing some sort of "early
boarding" is advised for travelers with instruments.
Is there something similar in Europe?

sitting on a beach or at a harbourside restaurant in a temperature of
about 30 degrees, and looking at a mountain top with snow on it.

Even with modern gut strings it's possible to string a 6c lute

only plain gut (well, high twist or whatever) in the bass and
also a
13c swan neck lute! The difficult cases are the 8 to 10 course
lutes,
the 13c bass rider type, also the liuto attiorbato, for all of

loaded basses might well be the answer.
I can't send attachments to the list but I'm sending you another

remarkably thin.

Hello Martin,
Nice site and blog.
I seem to recall that when loaded strings first came out (25
yrs
ago?)
that some of the evidence for their use was found in the
small
diameter
holes in some lute bridges. To maintain string tensions at
around
present day levels the hypothesis was therefore that the old
bass
strings would have been dense than plain gut - hence
'loaded'.
I also recall that somebody (might have been Eph Segerman)
at the
time
also pointed out an alternative for such relatively small
diameter
holes: that the tensions of the bass strings might be much
lower
than
the upper courses. In short just as you're suggesting. My
experience of
doing this at the time was that one needed to play very
close to
the
bridge to gain any projection and, of course, this is
precisely
what
most old sources (from c.1600 onwards) tell us. So you may
be
right -
that basses were often(always?) at a significantly lower
tension
than
the upper courses.
Having said this, I did like Mimmo's loaded strings very
much
and, of
course, they also possibly indicate loading because of their
distinctive colour. All food for thought..

Martyn

To me, the real tragedy of YouTube is that they pander to some of the lowest forms of entertainment imaginable. I have, unfortunately learned about some of them from my 14 year old daughter. Top of the trash heap is PewDiePie, a purveyor of profanity, stupidity and trash with 42 million subscribers and an income from YouTube of approximately $14 Million dollars per year. My daughter is addicted to "Dan and Phil", panderers of senseless nonsense who earn $6 Million per year from 1.6 million subscribers. The list goes on and on ad nauseum. The old adage that TV was the vast wasteland has been replaced by YouTube being the vast wasteland. Whatever promise existed in the past for lutenists to make some money on YouTube could be very well obliterated by this assault from low budget, low skill set potty-mouthed amateurs commandeering the attention of the juvenile audience.

As far as I am aware Martyn does not know Anton personally, knows nothing about him or his work, doesn't understand why he is doing it or why he sends messages to the list to draw attention to it. I think it was officious and patronising of Martyn to contact Anton off the list and say to him - if this is what he did say "Have you ever considered learning to play from figured bass? This would save you much mundane work making these unnecessary transcriptions/arrangements". Anton is a professional player and doesn't need any advice from Martyn. Other people certainly don't think that Anton's transcriptions are unnecessry. If what you want to say is not suitable to be said in public perhaps you should ask yourself what right you have to contact someone whom you have never met and say it to them in private.

Just because someone's name is on this list doesn't prohibit one from conducting private communications if considered more appropriate (and tactful..). In general I think the usual protocol is probably the wisest to follow: a personal message is just that. Ralf Mattes well sets this out in his message yesterday. And yes, if we think it more appropriate to discuss things personally with another individual list member (who we may already know anyway) then I can see no problem with that. Indeed, some of the more useful and helpful messages I receive from time to time are by from individual list members not copied to the entire list. Horses for courses I think.. regards, Martyn.

As I understand it Martyn contacted Anton after he had posted details of his latest intabulations on this list. If Martyn has anything helpful to say that might help Anton to make his work even more useful than it is already - and a lot of people do find it very useful and are grateful to him for posting the details - then why not say it here.

the instruments must be allowed on board, and if there is room in
the
overhead bins the instrument can go in there, and CANNOT
be removed to make room for suitcases. it is "first come, first

but if there is no room, the instrument must be checked or the

Is there something similar in Europe?

[LUTE] Re: planetary tuners
Michael; With standard pegs, they won't go out of round if you maintain them properly. That means loosening the peg by turning it and pulling out a bit so that there is just light pressure between the wooden parts. That compensates for the dimensional changes caused by humidity changes. Of course that throws the instrument out of tune, which means you might need to re-tune it, and if you have 42 lutesâ¦â¦you will need extra staff, medical marijuana or psychiatric treatment. However, you probably already know this. A. John Mardinly, Ph.D., P.E. Retired Principal Materials Nanoanalysis Engineer On Feb 11, 2017, at 5:32 PM, LSA Lute Rental Program <[1]lsaluteren...@gmail.com> wrote: About once a year the topic of planetary tuners comes up on this listserve. People weigh in for and against, sometimes (like last year) the discussion gets overheated as some who are against cite historical authenticity and other factors as reasons against and those who are for them cite the "make it easy on yourself--adopt modern methods" position to support their use. Then, after the dust settles, we discover we are pretty much evenly split for and against and the issue dies down only to rise again in 12 months. For those who do not wish to use planetary tuners, the most notable example of which is PegHedz, their best approach is not to use them. For those, like me, who have used them and like them very much indeed, the best approach is to keep using them. I have 42 instruments in the LSA's lute rental collection and if I had the money to do so I would install PegHedz on every single one. The LSA neither supports nor does not support the use of any particular tuner, including friction pegs or planetary tuners such as PegHedz. I am only telling you that I think they are such a valuable resource that I would put them on all the lutes if it could be afforded. It can't so I won't. But if I did it would forever eliminate the problem that aging lutes have of pegs that become out of round and needing replacing or retooling. It would also make tuning much easier for beginners--but that is just my opinion. So it seems best for us to use what we like as tuners and focus on the music we make with the strings. Let us all continue to make beautiful music no matter what method we use to tension our strings.

There are lutes in the collection that I have never even seen in person much less put my hands on so I can do things like you suggest.

I also think renters would benefit from them as, to me, tuning is much easier and for people who are renting (this almost always means they are new to the lute--which is why they are renting) it would be, in my opinion, a benefit. But this is all just theoretical since we don't have the money it costs to replace the pegs. So we will live with what we have and I will deal with peg problems as they come up. Michael Michael M.

That compensates for the dimensional changes caused by humidity changes. Of course that throws the instrument out of tune, which means you might need to re-tune it, and if you have 42 lutesâ¦â¦you will need extra staff, medical marijuana or psychiatric treatment.

People weigh in for and against, sometimes (like last year) the discussion gets overheated as some who are against cite historical authenticity and other factors as reasons against and those who are for them cite the "make it easy on yourself--adopt modern methods" position to support their use. Then, after the dust settles, we discover we are pretty much evenly split for and against and the issue dies down only to rise again in 12 months. For those who do not wish to use planetary tuners, the most notable example of which is PegHedz, their best approach is not to use them. For those, like me, who have used them and like them very much indeed, the best approach is to keep using them. I have 42 instruments in the LSA's lute rental collection and if I had the money to do so I would install PegHedz on every single one. The LSA neither supports nor does not support the use of any particular tuner, including friction pegs or planetary tuners such as PegHedz. I am only telling you that I think they are such a valuable resource that I would put them on all the lutes if it could be afforded. It can't so I won't. But if I did it would forever eliminate the problem that aging lutes have of pegs that become out of round and needing replacing or retooling. It would also make tuning much easier for beginners--but that is just my opinion. So it seems best for us to use what we like as tuners and focus on the music we make with the strings. Let us all continue to make beautiful music no matter what method we use to tension our strings.

[LUTE] Re: planetary tuners
I have planetary tuners called âPegheads'. They were installed in my 1970 David Rubio 8 course lute by Mel Wong during a restoration he did a year and a half ago. Let me share some observations: 1) The original friction pegs had gone very out of round and were very difficult to use. My understanding of this process is that it is caused by anisotropic expansion and contraction of the woods, which is extreme in regions that have extreme changes in humidity with the seasons. The 'Pegheads' seem immune to this problem. I know this can be avoided by regularly moving the pegs, but prior to the restoration, the instrument had been unplayable for over a decade, and I just never even took it out of the case to look at it. 2) The 4/1 mechanical advantage and absence of âsticking' make it much easier to adjust the tension on the string between the peg and the nut. 3) The improvement in adjusting the tension does not necessarily translate into improvement in tuning, since on my lute, the strings stick at the nut. Perhaps I need a new nut, or need to repair and re-install the âroller-nut' I built 40 years ago that I removed for the restoration. I have just been too busy playing, and perhaps a bit lazy and procrastinating so far. 4) Changing strings requires a lot more (4X) knob twisting, and they do not fit any guitar string winders I have seen. 5) As a former industrial and university failure analysis engineer, I am always worried that one day, something inside the peg head will go âPop', the peg won't work, and my lute will be essentially disabled, and I will not be able to fix it myself because I have no idea what the âguts' of the mechanism is or if there is even a way to take it apart for repair without destroying it.

Not true! "Segovian usually means unmusical, sloppy, irritating etc." for his solo playing, but when he played with an ensemble, he was forced to be disciplined and musical, like it or not. Just listen to his recordings of Rodrigo's Fantasia para un Gentlehombre, Ponce's Concerto del Sur, and Castelnuovo-Tedesco's Guitar Quintet. A. John Mardinly, Ph.D., P.E.

On the other hand one may ask questions like: why someone plays single strung archlute if there is little evidence for this type of instrument, why someone uses fingernails if the evidence speaks against using them, and why someone uses amplification (Noble prize for someone who'll find any evidence for this :)) And if all of this is used simultaneously, then one may assume it is not coincidental. Why? Because it is much more guitar-like, and most of lute players started their musical education as guitarists. Another problem is the fear of not being heard by an audience especially when playing in a group .

[LUTE] Re: Aquila Loaded Nylgut sustain
Huh? Folks, sound and vibration are one and the same. If the string can be seen to be vibrating and you can't hear it, it is either a problem with your hearing (which to be sure comes naturally with our advancing age), or there is sufficient ambient noise in the room or other notes being played that the sound is overwhelmed. You can be sure, that if the string is vibrating, there IS sound, whether your ears/brain sense it or not. The attenuation of the vibration follows a mathematical formula (exponential decay) that is related to internal damping and parasitic loss (which is energy transferred from the string to the body of the instrument). Attempting to ascribe a single time duration number to the sustain is an absurdity that violates the laws of physics. You can use a single number to approach some convenient threshold, say for example 75% attenuation (time to 75% reduction in volume), but 100% attenuation is something you would never be able to determine with any useful accuracy. Rob's video shows that it seems relatively easy to âqualitatively' assess the difference in sustain, but to put numbers on it, you would need to decide on some terminating threshold, and realize that the string is still vibrating and there is still sound beyond that terminating threshold.

Mersenne is a scientist, therefore a precise observer and his observations are worth considering seriously. When he describes the duration of the sound of the bass stings of a lute, he takes care to precise ""...le son des grosses chordes de Luth est apperceu de l'oreille durant la sixiesme partie, ou le tiers d'une minute...", the sound is preceived by the ear for 10 to 20 seconds. And a few lines further he says : "...Il n'y a nul doute que la chorde se meut encore long-temps après que l'oreille en perd le son..." = there is no doubt that the strings still moves a long time after the ear has lost its sound. So he is not confusing vibration and sound, not at all ! Now, as Matthew remarked, we don't know about the conditions in which the test was done. If the lute is laid on a table, it might certainly influence the parameters of the experience... Best, Jean-Marie -- I am lucky: I have seen /installed strings on some hundreds od lutes in these last years. Maybe I can be in mistake, but I have never seen a lute, whose basses are roped strings or even loaded roped strings, whose sustain is so long. Even with modern Pyramid nylon wound strings (they have in absolute the higher density) . I would like to know if here there is somebody that can have a positive experience in matter. At present I would stick that Mersenne meant how many time last the vibration, not the sound.

Maybe Mersenne's comments go to show just how good some lutes were at the time. If one was to rest a lute on the edge of a wooden table as they were wont to do at the time, then maybe those 20 seconds are not so unrealistic.

[LUTE] Re: Aquila Loaded Nylgut sustain
No contest-I use and love the Savarez (on my 8-course) not just because of the sustain, but they pick up the vibrations from the treble strings and give an ethereal sound to the instrument. It's like having your own cathedral at home without the expense. A. John Mardinly, Ph.D., P.E.

With the Savarez, you will be required to stop pretty much every note you play in the bass. With the Aquila, less so. The Aquila do remind me of gut basses. I used to have an 11c completely strung in gut, and these loaded nylgut strings are very, very close. On the other hand...Mersenne says his basses sustain for almost 20 seconds!!! I'll stick with the Aquila. Rob -- References 1.

[LUTE] Re: Page-Turners
I attended a performance of the Sonoran Chamber Music Series where Professor Thomas Landschoot, cellist, used a foot operated page turner with a large format iPad pro. He also had a special music stand that held the iPad in a clamp so that it could not fall unless the entire stand was knocked over by a healthy kick. It worked flawlessly while the other performers struggled with conventional page turns. Well, yes, there is a risk of the software crashing, but it is probably less than the risk of grabbing two paper pages or knocking the entire paper score to the floor with a hasty grab. The only downside I saw was that the flashing red status LED was visible to the audience and was a little distracting. However, that could be easily concealed. A. John Mardinly, Ph.D., P.E.

[LUTE] Re: basses in octaves
Simple physics: the strings are not uniform along their lengths, something that is actually difficult to achieve but something we have become accustomed to with newer more sophisticated methods of making strings.

Retired Principal Materials Nanoanalysis Engineer On Feb 28, 2017, at 10:56 AM, Bruno Cognyl-Fournier <[1]fournier...@gmail.com> wrote: Dear Collective wisdom, I have been tuning my 5 and 6th course in octaves for years, with wound strings and gut or nylgut. recently I bought the CD loaded strings from Mimmo and am slowly getting used to them. I have thus replaced the fundamental with CD loaded, while keeping my octave strings in gut or nylgut, this on two different lutes. I have noticed that the octaves are horribly out of tune as I go up the neck, especially by the time you get to the 7th fret. I realize I rarely have to play up there, but it bothers me. Am trying to figure out what the problem is.. would it be a mismatch of tension? or would it be the Loaded CD strings, that as some of you have probably found to be very elastic. I have never had this issue with wound string/gut combinations. I will be testing each string individually to check which one goes out of tune as you move up the scale, but I suspect it is the Loaded string that is giving me the problem. any comments?

[LUTE] Re: Loose bars?
My 45 year old Rubio lute had more than buzzing; it was rattling. The braces had come loose when I took it to New York to the shop of Tom Hom for adjusting the action. He kept it in his NYC shop that had no humidifiers for 6 months. It also split the top. I could make it rattle by tapping with the back of my knuckles. The solution was to have Mel Wong remove the top and reglue the braces. This is major surgery! Fortunately, Mel had sufficient skill to pull it off. Delaminating braces in guitars is common enough that there are many videos on youtube on how to fix them, but guitars yield access to the braces through the sound hole (except for Antonio Torres second era guitars with a tournavaz) and lutes do not.

[LUTE] Surgery
I had surgery on May 10 to remove a 4mm mass that had appeared suddenly on my barring finger, making playing very difficult. I went to a hand surgery specialist who was skilled at the micro-suturing to close the wound so it would heal properly. After 5 weeks, I was able to get back to practicing. Pathology report was that the mass was a blood clot and there was no other disease process or malignancy. The surgeon explained that it must have been caused by physical trauma from playing. Very scary, but I am fortunate to have gotten away with no serious after effects or complications. A. John Mardinly, Ph.D., P.E.
