Roman,
You make some good points, and I confess I haven't read every message in the
thread so I'm not sure if the discussion is on the total copying of a book
(a work product), or the copying of particular parts of a book (say
facsimiles of particular pieces that are themselves in the public
I have my own guitar arrangement, that has never been written down. Also in
my files (somewhere) I have a three part version written for a cappella
singers in a fine counterpoint. I have intended to try to put both in
standard notation, but not sure if I could put it in lute tabulature, yet -

Thanks to all the kind messages, both to this list and to me privately. =
Many of the writers find it hard to understand why I don't follow my own =
advice and get a day job so that I can play the lute for my own pleasure =
and do the occasional concert. That is obvious, and yet I am not the =

The term lutar is - at least as far as I know - used for a

Ok Caroline, this is all your fault. Since you mentioned the Gypsie's Lilt
I decided to see if I had a copy and in fact I have two, one by Ronn
McFarlane and one by Robert Phillips. Both versions contain the most
hideous chord I've ever heard.

Hi,
this is one of the most beautifull chords in renaissance lute music!
And - BTW - it HAS to be a chord which sounds a bit out of place
given the progression of the music.
I well remember the discussion we had about the chord several years
ago as Rob still pleeded for Lutars for an independant
Well, my apologies to all. My statement largely was meant to be tongue in
cheek, and I intended no slight to the early Jugendbewegung movement or
Wandervögel groups. After all, they constituted the earliest seed of what
has flowered into one of the most active camps of modern art music for

guitar
in a lute-like shape may be just the tool for this job.
which would be a liuto forte
but these are rather expensive (I think the cheapest will cost around
6000 $)
(well-done instruments without repertoire but of high quality of
craftsmanship - what a loss of material and time

Incidentally, the version you mention by Robert Phillips is actually the
Englished version on the name of Rob MacKillop. They are one and the same.
Yes, this subject was discussed at length years ago. It is a beautiful
chord, in my opinion. And no, it is not an accident, as it is stated and

MO, your own business practices are so far removed from being kosher, that
your moralization is nothing more than a joke that outlived its punch-line.
Yes I know. I admit it and I hang my head down with abject shame.
Abject poverty of heart and mind, but not shame, I'm afraid
