Hi all,
Its that time again - time for eggnog, fruitcake, extended time with extended
family, desperate last minute trips to the mall... and of course, theorbo music!
Here are two clips of (just in time) seasonal theorbo offerings:

Dear Dana,
You ask if there are any instruments with open courses tuned to the same
note. Some tunings of the Turkish saz or baglama (long-necked lute-like
instrument) have the 1st and 3rd courses tuned to the same pitch. See

Ashamed to admit knowledge of this, but most of the balalaika family
instruments tune with two unison strings (it's not a pair, or course,
but two independent strings), starting with a-e-e for piccolo.

by the sound of the theorbo as it has been by the lute, your
arrangements and playing are wonderful. May all your strings resonant
with wonderful harmonies in the new year.

Dear Lute List
Just Season's Greetings of the very best kind from a List Lurker and
Lute Appreciator. Thanks for another year of interesting musical
insights and treats.
All the best for 2010 from the Cambridgeshire Fens (with snow
disappearing and fog descending).

And the same to you, Karen. If 'lute appreciator' doesn't include lute
player, I'm sure all here would encourage you to join all those of us
who are amateur players.

The Scots/Irish clarsach (medieval wire-string harp) of yore had the
two central strings tuned to b, and were referred to as the 'two
sisters'. I have a couple of theories as to why this should be. 1) one
of them was b flat - necessary for medieval music theory and practice,
