What I mean is: when performing that in an ensemble, what's the
point of the lute doubling one of the other parts?
Projection in a large performance space may have been an issue; it
could have been a way of creating a super-lute. spaces.
Haydn's piano trios often have a similar texture,
Or, might I add an even simpler suggestion: because it sounds interesting...
The doubling of parts exists in all kind and and periods of musicmaking,
often just for the coloration it provides

Answers to why this is so will necessarily be guesswork. What can be
stated, however, is that Lautenkonzert as a genre implies doubling of
the parts (Radolt, Hinterleithner et al).
BTW you could also say that the violin doubles the upper voice of the
lute. It depends on which instrument is
If you read the blog a bit further it seems that Sting is probably not the
best selling classical CD of the year that is in fact the The Baby Einstein
Music Box Orchestra who are the top selling budget and mid-price artists. I
think Sting fits in quite nicely there; maybe they should work together
Dear All,
I'm working on a transcription/realisation for keyboard of Simone
Molinaro's famous /Fantasia XII/ (the chromatic piece). I've just come
across what appears to be a 'u' on the highest sounding string ... I
can't seem to find anything to suggest what it might mean ... can
That u is probably 11th fret.

So, rather than realized continuo parts, the lute tablature represents
a condensed score, if you will, for separate performance?

Hi Elly- just had a look at this; it's a g-flat (11th fret on a g
lute) Molinaro used a u for 11, X for 10, and 13 with a curved line
underneath linking the 1 and 3 to make it very clear that he does,
indeed, want an a-flat at the 13th semitone (13 fret if you're
lucky). Last note in that
Oops- I meant, i is the 17th semitone.

Greetings,
I've been listening to Nigel North's album of Piccinini, and I have a few
questions:
(First, a comment): Piccinini needs to be much better known. His music is
remarkable.
1. There's a facsimile available on the django website, but is there an
edition?
2. Piccinini's work appears to
Re chitarrone theorbo--
Skip the label.
Early on, some modern scholars decided to conflate the theorbo and
the chitarrone.
Historically, that is not the case. Historically, many of these terms
meant different things to different people at different times.
There may have been a Chitarrone bass
When getting an archlute, get one that can be either double or single
strung, and have different divisions, e.g. 6+8, 7+7
8+6, etc. 8+6 is great for Bach (low F and F sharp; C and C sharp).
6+8 great for earlier repertory.
More holes; less poles.
Or buy 6 archlutes.

Dear David,
Thanks very much for passing this on. The full story of Ricky Skaggs playing
with Bill Monroe is

when he comes back to sing Ruby:

Priceless; archlute advice for the ages- from one who has paid his dues.
More holes; less poles!
-But I still will not touch Sting's CD with a ten foot theorbo (yes
I've heard it). The late Lorraine Hunt is another matter entirely.

Dear Stewart:
Thanks for all of the links. I'm sure Ricky was relating his first experience
of playing with Bill Monroe at a high school performance accurately. The early
television program actually showed the seven-year old Ricky being introduced by
Lester Flatt.
Best wishes,
Ron

One might have thought that eye-witness accounts were reliable, but
it is interesting what discrepancies there are in Skaggs' acount in
the fourth clip. He insists he was only six years old, having given
his age as seven in the original
Dear Ron,
Thanks for the clarification. It all makes sense now.
