Dear Bernd, suspect you're right concerning cross-influences in italian and french repertoire. I did not find the time yet but it may be interesting to compare what happened to the Air Je treuve sur le herbe assize (or so - don't have it before my eyes now) when it came into an italian musician's

Can anyone tell me about Terzi's Cosi le chiome? IS it even a duet?--and if so, is it published, or would it be something put together for a particular performance? Are Terzi's duets completely out of the question for the relative newcomer to the lute repertoire? -- if some are

Hi Betsy, Cosi le chiome IS a duet. Pages 24 to 28 in the facsimile. To play Terzi well, I'd say you need to have played for quite a few years, and have good finger control, on at least intermediate level. Stretches are sometimes quite prohibitive if not played on a descant lute. There are a

Hi Stephen et al, I have used Audacity to copy vinyl MP3 CD but found the end result has very little bass to it. There is no bass-setting on my USB-turntable. So the settings on the stereo only enhance the audio output from the turntable. The USB-cable goes direct into the PC. Bass just isn't

anyone have experience with these strings? Yes, I do. 1. Do they sound as good as sheep gut? If not, are they at least better sounding than nylon or nylgut? I prefer the sound of Kathedrale, also _very_ long lasting, but some do disagree about here. Universale is _much_ better than

2008-11-23 Thread alexander
Greetings. The most probable reason for the lack of bass on copying from a vinyl might be the frequency design of vinyl players' heads. The piezo-electric heads have their whole frequency region over in the highs, but i assume it is not the case here, so you probably used a magnetic head.
