[NSP] Re: Ebay nsp book
The second photo provided in the ebay listing has the printed title page with Fenwick as the author. Why does it have a hand written top cover with Cocks and the author? Hello, I was going to lurk on this list a little longer before raising my head over the parapet, but wonder if you've noticed the copy of the nsp book, described as by Fenwick, but with W A Cocks' name on the cover currently on ebay.co.uk due to go at about 8.pm UK time, about 3 hours. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItemitem=110217410878ssPageName=ADME:B:WNA:GB:1123 http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItemitem=110217410878ssPageName=ADME:B:WNA:GB:1123 or item no. 110217410878 if you prefer. I apologise if you're a member of this list have already bid... I've just raised the potential competition. I've already bought one book today... happy bidding if you do! Best wishes, Rihcard.

Groups of voluntary and amateur participants in music, dance, literature, visual arts and theatre, are being encouraged to fill out the short questionnaire by 29 February. Culture minister Margaret Hodge said: The arts are a really important part of so many people's lives. Taking part in local voluntary arts groups is rewarding, fascinating and fun and this survey is the first step to connect with those involved. Over 70 per cent of people in England take part in artistic activities in all their many and varied forms, but for too long, local arts groups have not been fully recognised as an important part of our thriving arts scene. This survey will try to map voluntary and amateur arts group and look at how they are supported and how more people could be encouraged to get involved. The results will be published in the summer.

Why does it have a hand written top cover with Cocks and the author? This is, as someone has already said, the 1931 edition. Its also, judging by the second photo, a photocopy, since the original is A5 portrait or thereabouts, and the photo displays 2 pages of the original. If someone can decipher the signature in the bottom R. H. corner of the first photo, it might be possible to date it. Anyone wishing for a scanned copy of this edition can have one, at rather less than half the current high bid + carriage at cost. If enough people want one we'll do a facsimile of it, but the information is already available in print in the facsimile of the original edition, available from NPS booksales (yes, OK, me!) as part of the 4 volume set of the C19 transactions of the NSPS, for which the total price is also less than the high bid on ebay. Caveat emptor should be the watchword on ebay.. Julia To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html
[NSP] Re: Pipers in the Netherlands ?
There is a very good player in Leeuwarden called Gerrit de Vries, whose playing would be an excellent advert for the instrument. I don't feel I can publish Gerrit's contact details here but if the fellow in Alkmaar likes to phone me, I can pass them on to him. Leeuwarden is easy to get to from Alkmaar.

Evening all - I've had an e-mail from someone in the Netherlands (Alkmaar) who wants to find out if the NSP is an instrument for them. Is there anybody in the locality I could put them in touch with? thanks Rob To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html
