On the lute? A single strung, metal fretted Liuto forte? Does this qualify
as an anachronism?
I don't think there is anything here that couldn't be done just as well (or
better) on a guitar. But sure, it looks cool, and perhaps there is a timbre
or tone quality that could not be replicated on
That's true
My point wasn't to show a extra quality - just that a lute (or in that case
a liuto forte) could do anything. And I personally like jazz being played on
lutes (or other non-electronic settings).
There were settings done of some ragtime standards (Grizzly Bear for
instance) and we

the camera focuses from the nut downward and you can see the lowest

buzzing I suppose.

At 88.5 cms it will give you a big sound but would be quite a stretch for a
beginner. The price, under a thousand pounds, is excellent, but I can't
comment on the quality. You mention shawms, crumhorns - sounds more like a

The bass lute sounds like a good suggestion too, but there is only so much I
