Allan Alexander has some fine works in these volumes. I just looked
thru the indices and I see Ronn McFarlane has many of them in his book
The Scottish Lute.
Thinking more about it just now, some years ago, one of our esteemed
members, whose name slips my mind at the moment,
Yes, some very nice music there! Turlough O' Carolan's music sounds
excellent on the lute and even on the guitar. I'm surprised it is not
more known and played.

I think I have a facsimile somewhere.

Several of us have foisted loads of arrangements of later Irish tunes
upon unsuspecting listeners, and Ronn McFarlane has a very nice
recording of his own arrangements played
I think this is what you are referring to:

Didn't Allan Alexander edit some Turlough O' Carolan for lute?

I assume you mean Irish harp music Good question given proximity of Irish
harpers to lutes at court.

Now that you mention Mersenne...

But seriously, the question of how the instruments were built is important,
but I'm really interested in the music, or more specifically, pieces
that are derived from harp playing.

Hello Martyn and luters...
As my mail client and VPN seem to insist on arguing, Iâll take my
chances of getting this outâ¦.
Since Mudarra and Spanish harp was brought up and I was re-reading
Peter Holmanâs 1987 article in Early Music, Holman mentions the
possibility that
Hello Martyn,
Warning lute folks! A bit more a harp centric post but as I mention further
down, the lute is very important to it...
Yes, I agree and thanks for the correction. John Cunningham has also looked
at the evidence of what Irish harp that would fit the music. The Timm
painting is very
Hello Martyn,
I just crafted a response to your post on my desktop and on sending it it was

Lovely. Does anyone know what kind of harp they are using.

Thanks for all the info!
I didn't know Irish harpists were such a hit back then.
What about lute music adapting this style (at least for Spanish
harpists we have Mudarra 10)?
It's already hard to find Scottish music, but Irish music seems
non-existent in tabs.
I tried to
Dear David,
In fact, not actually 'up in the air as to what kind of harp was used':
- two leading authorities in the field, John Cunningham and Peter
Holman (amongst others), identify the wire strung instrument as that
expected for the Lawes harp consorts.
Pasted below is a 2013
I should look at my info before typing The succession of royal harpists was
Cormack MacDermott (1605); Philip Squire
(1618); Lewis Williams/Evans, harpist to James I, Charles I, and Charles II;
Charles Evans
(1660)

Yes, I forgot to mention the Lawes consorts for harp. It has been a bit
up in the air as to what kind of harp was used, a wire stung harp or a
gut strung arpa doppia.
Cormacke McDermott was the Irish harpist at court, followed by Charles
Evans playing a triple harp

Sorry - I mean Charles I not Charles II.
As I understand it the harpist at the court of Charles II played an Irish harp
but I can't remember his name.

Not so curious really. Dowland spent time at the Court of Christian IV and
there are eleven consorts by William Lawes for harp, bass, viola de gamba,
violin and theorbo. As I understand it the harpist at the court of Charles II
played an Irish harp but I can't remember his name.
