Hi I play the lute, but I am not at the public performance level yet. I am in the Washington DC area and would like to hire a good lutenist to play two pieces by Josquin Des Prez, from the 1517 Capirola lute book: Et in Terra and Qui Tollis. Both pieces were arranged for lute based on Josquin's Missa Pange Lingua which wasn't published until 1539. The lute pieces have historic significance because they helped establish Josquin's authorship and the date the mass was composed.
The concert is 3 pm June 26, 2011 in Bethesda MD. The St Thomas Schola Cantorum will sing the Missa Pange Lingua, and after the second movement the lute pieces will be performed. I can provide the music if you need it. Please contact me with your credentials. Cyndi -- To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html
