Greatful thanks to all who gave advice and help on how to try to find facsimiles of Bach's lute music in french tablature. A very kind luter sent me: BWV 995 (beautiful writing, anonymous?) BWV 997 (3 movements) and BWV 1000 (cramped tablature Weyrauch?) Could someone tell me if that is all

Hi Arto, I enjoyed playing Stefan's music. I especially enjoyed the choral-settings, the Bellmann-Suites and some of his studies. There are also few pieces by Meinhardt Gerlach and Rüdiger Giess for Baroque Lute - Meinhardt mainly composed songs but the one or other piece for solo baroque

Unfortunately, modern music needs playing on the highest level, including a well tuned instrument. I'm wonderig if, besides of the superstition of the tablature, the double stringing of the lute isn't another obstacle in activating a lute to do what cpmposer/performer wants to do. Notice that a

BWV 999 is also available in Tablature. There has been an edition out by the Zentralantiquariat der DDR which I once wanted to republish for the german lute society (they lacked interest). I think one of the publishers for lute music (Tree?) republished these transcriptions (by Falckenhagen,

Indeed - double stringing precludes most avantgardist mannerisms. But the d-minor lute should be adaptable to some form of (post)minimalism. RT - Original Message - From: Jerzy Zak jurek...@gmail.com To: Baroque Lute List (E-mail) baroque-lute@cs.dartmouth.edu Sent: Saturday, October

Hi all, definitely my intention was not to insult Roman! I think Roman knows that, but perhaps not all other? I do know only a tiny portion of Roman's huge output, but still I have seen many beautiful pieces he has composed or arranged. And they also work well on the instrument. My aim was more

Arto, Better not wait until a miracle will happen. The easiest way, and widely accepted now, to have a new piece of music is to commision it. It's not that expensive as one might think. From time to time I hear of a colegue of mine that is asking a professional composer, or a music festival

Thanks Roman, that is nice version of the perhaps most well known old Finnish folk melody. Years ago I played with two very good Finnish folk masters, Heikki Laitinen and Hannu Saha. They played kantele and I played renaissance guitar. We improvised on different Finnish folk melodies. The
