Hi to all--
   
  A question--I've recently run across references to a lutenist identified 
variously as
   
  Francisco Weiber
  Francisco Weber
  Francisco Waber
   
  He was active in London in the 1720s and performed with the composer/cellist 
Giovanni Bononcini as well as the castrato Francesco Senesino.
   
  I've gleaned the little bit of information about him that I can from Lowell 
Lindgren's dissertation and articles about Bononcini, but have found no other 
easily accessible info on him. I do not have Matthew Spring's book (The Lute in 
Britain) at hand, but do not recall a discussion of anyone with that name.
   
  Anyone out there have any suggestions or knowledge of this lutenist?
   
  Thanks much!
