   And the pessimistic lyrics are perhaps even as relevant today as they

2020-09-14 Thread Tristan von Neumann

As I only started playing when Sarge's Archive was already well-filled,

I decided to start with Neusidler's book. It's really the best book for
beginners.

Other tutors are not as thoughtful.

Poulton was the worst: hey, let's play Packington's Pound, and then a
Fantasia by de Rippe...

While the learning curve in Neusidler is friendly, the music is
generally beautifully set and rewarding.

If you have someone who can sing the songs, or if you sing, the two
voice settings are very nice already.

I have to admit Neusidler hasn't received  the attention he (they)
deserve from me.   Back when I was an enthusiastic young lutenist he
was largely unavailable due to the "language" barrier.   I did make a
desultory attempt or two at learning German tablature, but, well...
And now it's all available translated!
Stay safe and keep playing,
Chris.

If you want to play it, the Hans Neusidler version is nice and easy.

Of course, his son also made a difficult version...
