I just ordered Miguel Serdoura's book directly from Ut Orpheus (they even
accepted American Express C.C.) on a Thursday and it arrived from Italy, to
Ohio, USA on Monday! Surprisingly fast delivery convenient way to order.
Compliments to Ut Orpheus mail-order department.

Dear David,
Some very nice playing indeed. Well done.
Please could you say a little about the bowed bass instrument with five
strings. What is it?
Best wishes,

It is really an astonishing instrument. It is absolutely gorgeous, and the
way the back is curved, it is a wonder how it had ever been
constructed. Dan Larson and I looked at it last January when we were there.

piccolo cello). He said that it did, in fact, simplify the Bach suites.

Modern knitting machines are operated by computers, which can't be too far

When I see this kind of input data, I think I'll stick with Wayne's
tab program: it's somewhat readable in its raw form, and very easy to
learn. A number of tablature options are available, as well as numerous
glyphs for ornaments and fingering (rh lh). Output is great, with size
Wow--great example of what another free program (thanks, Christoph) can do!
Again, I've used it with both PC and Mac. Very versatile; a must if you do
