Hello Arto and all You out there, I would say you already have one of a topmaker! If it is an early instrument by Lars you could ask him to upgrade it. Also consider the distance to your lutemaker. Things happen with our instruments and when it does it's nice when the luthier is not too far away.

I know this has been asked before, but I ask again. It's now two years since the announcement of the imminent publication of the Complete Works of Marco D'all Aquila. Last I heard was that the publisher was waiting for Paul O'Dette to finish editing some pieces. Are we still waiting

Hi Gary, I don't know the answer to your question, but you can find Marco's music on Arthur Ness' website, in recent issues of Lute News, and I think the MS known as Munich 266 (which has a whole section of Marco) is available online at the site of the Bavarian State Library - sorry I don't

Gary, Paul did an all-Marco program at BEMF two weeks ago. At the very bottom of the program the source was listed as the Complete Works of Marco D'all Aquila published in Lucca, Italy in 2011. While it is not quite ready yet, this should be an encouraging sign that it will be available

Hi luters, I'm thinking of getting into a type of lute music I've never played before, namely medieval lute. Problem is, I don't know where to find the music. Are there sources specifically for medieval lute, or does one simply have to just know what music to play based on knowledge of

There isn't much dedicated to any specific instrument in the medieval literature. Asteria does a great job of setting late medieval songs to punteado lute accompaniments. Perhaps check them for inspiration: http://nueva.asteriamusica.com/ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LB4CehJEK8A I also
