   Dear All,

I'd like to see a baroque lute arrangement of Frank Zappa's "Twenty
   Small Cigars." I'd play that.

[LUTE] Re: Some questions

2018-03-16 Thread spiffys84121
   I will play any music on lutes, if it works for that lute. I believe in
   using the right tool for the job-- unlike guitarists and pianists who
   endeavor to build the whole house with just a hammer.

   My question-- do most lute players only specialize in one repertoire? I
   play any lute music from almost the entire history of the lute-- except
   medieval. Of course this requires multiple lutes, which I'm happy to
   collect and play. I go through phases, like sometimes all I want to do
   is play six course music; then all of a sudden baroque lute is all I
   care about in life. Right now I'm obsessed with the liuto attiorbato
   which I think is the most versatile of all lutes. If for some reason I
   had to have only one lute, it would be an attiorbato. One can play
   hundreds of years worth of music on it(in a pinch) I'm working on my
   version of 'Georga on my Mind' at present. My attiorbatos have a range
   of 5 octaves.

Dear friends,
yesterday the substantial article of Johannes Agustsson on Joseph Johann
Adam von Liechtenstein was published. This noble man was not only a patron
of Vivaldi, but he also employed a composer and musician, whose works are
very widely known also in the lute world:
Johann Melchior Pichler (1695-1780?).
He most probably is 'our' Pichler.

Also Agustsson mentions Johann Georg Orschler (Orsler), of whom we have a
work with lute in Haslemere:

 Perhaps no one is odd enough for that! If there were such a person -
 who would only, ever,  play centuries' old music (however gem-laden

[LUTE] Re: Some questions

2018-03-16 Thread Alain Veylit
Trick question: When Paul O'Dette plays an arrangement of a ragtime on 
lutes, it that early music or modern music?


I am reminded of a quote by a jazz player (whose name escapes me now): 
there are only two kinds of music, the good one and the other one. Which 
one should we play on which instrument?
Whatever gets in the way of having fun with the music gets in the way of 
good music. Whether arthritis or prejudices (that could be defined as 
arthritis of the mind). Should playing the lute prevent us from having 
fun with the music?
It is illogical in this space-time continuum to insist that 
improvisation is a necessary skill for early music and refuse to play 
contemporary music, don't you think?
Given the fact that there was a large amount of bad music published in 
the 16th and 17th century, should not we be allowed to play bad 
contemporary music?

Just sticking to the label of this thread...

   Dear Wayne,
   Due to a desire to play Loud lute music, I bought a 7-steel string
   electric guitar and another 8-steel string electric guitar partly
   because they were so dirt cheap compared to lutes, which are simply not
   available at the local Guitar Center.   After I learned they
   sell guitars on consignment, including my cheap 7-string, I asked if I
   could sell some lutes on consignment.  They said NO.  I haven't played
   these two guitars much because they are H e a v y! and because the
   strings hurt my gnarled fingers, and so on.
   Best wishes,

Yes indeed. It would be quite enough! Most of my students over the years 
have been just such people. I have also, for years at a stretch, also 
played only old lute music on my aging lutes.
As far as I know at this time it still considered a "harmless choice of 
a free being". So far there have occurred no arrests, indictments, 
censures, citations, boycotts; or any other civil, legal, or criminal 
repercussions due to such proclivities. Of course, Bob Mueller is not 
yet finished with his extensive investigations so this is not written in

If it seems odd to want to play modern music on a lute it is surely 
odder to only play a lute and only ever to play  music that was composed 
centuries ago.


Perhaps no one is odd enough for that! If there were such a person - who 
would only, ever,  play centuries' old music (however gem-laden it may 
be) - would it be enough to say that this choice was the harmless choice 
of a free being?


There is no obvious harm to others in such a case but perhaps it's a 
case of self-harm.

Thanks Daniel.

Yes, I have that old LP and also the old recording of LeRoy and Paladin he did 
on that Goffriller copy.  Someone recently told me that Nico van der Waals is 
alive, living with a German Lutenist. Since Nico has never used computers, I 
shall ask that Lutenist if he/ she knows anything or could ask him.  It seems 
as though Nico van der Waals is the only person we know of who has knowledge in 
this area.

I will be seeing Amit Peled who has the Pablo Casals Goffriller cello on 
Sunday, and I want to tell him about the extant Goffriller lute, assuming there 
IS a Goffriller copy anywhere. I hope this is not a hoax, but the claim was 
years ago that Paul played his alto lute as a Goffriller copy, but nobody has 
documentation now of the existence of a Goffriller lute.

The plot thickens

Sent from my iPhone


The strange thing is that the dates don't seem right at all. The lute 
Paul O'Dette plays is a 6-course and Goffriller was active in the late 
17th and early 18th centuries. He did have a son who was a luthier but 
he would have been even less likely to make a 6-course.


Best,

Matthew

>> Dear ones,

>> I reside in Northern Minnesota, and in a few days we will have a cello 
>> concert performed by Amit Peled, and he is performing on Pablo Casals’ old 
>> cello by Matteo Goffriller made in 1733.  I looked up some information on 
>> that builder, and he founded the Venice school of violin making and he is 
>> known mostly for his cellos.  Most or all of his surviving instruments are 
>> accounted for, but all lists contained only violins, violas, cellos, basses. 
>> No lutes listed. 
>> 
>> I seem to recall years ago that Paul O’Dette used to play an alto lute built 
>> by Nico van der waals, modeled after a lute by Goffriller. I am having a 
>> difficult time finding anything about extant Goffriller lutes. Does anyone 
>> know anything about the provenance of an old Goffriller lute?  I would like 
>> to know, as I will be meeting with Amit Pelad, who has Pablo Casals’ 
>> Goffriller cello.
