Dear lutenists, The ms. RA-BAn Ms. 236.R-13769, Buenos Aires, Biblioteca nacional, the the so called Kalivoda Ms., contains mainly music of the Weiss' times, Weiss included. But strangely enough, it seems to have also some early music as seen in 1720's. My second try in this is a Sarabande

Hi All, As the opportunity arose, just made a couple of quick and dirty recordings on an 11c lute I made a couple of years ago (after Maler, 69cm) using loaded gut strings: www.luteshop.co.uk/11c/laltesseroyale.mp3 www.luteshop.co.uk/11c/labellehomicide.mp3 I am so sad that we cannot get
