[BAROQUE-LUTE] New Semi-Tone Device

2010-10-08 Thread sterling price
Dear all-- I have just created a new semi-tone device for a Jauck type baroque lute. This allows me to change the pitch of bass strings by a half step without tuning. I can go from say e-flat minor to A-major in just a few seconds with complete stability.    A similar semi-tone device is

Some more info about the semi tone device. The base is made of maple stained black. The nut is lignum vitae as well a the smaller nut which actually raises or 'frets' the course. Hide glue is used. Also I am looking for the photo I have of Hans Neeman. I think it was from an old LSA quarterly or

Sorry, no pictures, but I also made something for my theorbo last year. In terms of practicality, I see nothing wrong with things like this. Not possessing any woodworking skills at all, my solution was low-tech in the extreme: I took half a wooden clothes pin and glued it to part of a paint

So, I guess you have more than 6 courses on the fingerboard? You had some low tech device for getting the g and g sharp (assuming a theorbo in a), and perhaps also f and f sharp (if you have even 8 strings on fingerboard?)? Or what? I suppose I did not get the idea at all!? Anyhow, neither do I

Stefan's music is very good in fact, and thoroughly modern. I'd add to that a distinction that it is MODERNIST, but NOT CONTEMPORARY in style and character. His non-lutenistic works are far more contemporary in character. The actual contemporary idiom is either eschewing all notion of

The actual contemporary idiom or academic idiom predominates on best contemporary music festivals and specialized record labels. But not all interesting composers feel bound to it and some of them aren't eschewing pitch and rhytm notation, nither are post-Minimalists. But it is extremaly hard
