Well - apparently Strizich has recently done a completely new edition of De
Visee arranged for 6-string guitar. I think it is published by
Dobermann-Ypan in Canada but not being a 6-string person I don't have a copy
of it.
I do remember playing some of De Visee when I was learning classical
guitar - but I didn't care for it very much that way! De gustibus non
disputandum.

Indeed. I'm in the day job office and can't refer directly, but I seem to
remember spots/chords where it's not clear to which course/string the symbol
applied. Feel free to correct me if this is not the case. Strizich is a
somewhat useful...but also a somewhat odd effort. Personally, I feel de
Visee is one of those few 5-course characters who loses almost nothing in
use of the low A throughout. If transcribing de Visee to modern notation,
I'd almost rather assume a typical modern instrument, with notes along the
fifth notated as though they are along an A, as Grimes did in his guitar
transcriptions for good ol' Mel Bay, de Visee included.
Best,
Eugene

Well - Strizich does indicate which course the notes are on with a little
figure in a circle below the stave but you need a magnifying glass to read
them. e.g. in the first bar the c is played on the 5th course and the a on
the 3rd. He also puts in zeros to indicate open courses e.g. on line 3 in
the third bar the zeros over the a and b natural indicate that they are
played on the open 5th and 2nd courses.
It does highlight how difficult it is to transcribe baroque guitar music
coherantly.

A little late to this chat, but I find the Strizich transcription a bit
unwieldy in notating notes along the reentrant a at pitch. It's just hard
to know whether notes in the relevant range belong along the a, g, or b
string.

Eugene

A transcription of it is also included in Robert Strizich's edition of De
Visee's complete works published by Heugel in1969.

It has also been recorded by Rafael Andia. But I don't really like the
recording...

Dear Arto
There is a guitar version of this chaconne - in D minor - in the huge
manuscript F.Pn Res. F. 844. It is on p.237.
Someone - Stuart I think - pointed out that you can download an image of
the
whole of this ms. from the Bib. Nat. site.
Regards
Monica

Dear "flat back" lutenists,
My try on de Visee's Chaconne in A minor is - as I told - is in
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RqHHPeLMNYU&feature=youtu.be
http://vimeo.com/53172045
As I said, there is the original(?) theorbo version of this d-minor
lute
version, but I have a strong memory image that there is also a version
to the 5 course guitar of this Chaconne. Is it there? Monica? Other
specialists?
best,
Arto
