<p>I just got my first vihuela 2 days ago ( a nice instrument by Paul Baker And I am thinking how to progress . I do play a bit of lute , as well as Classical guitar. Like you I have played Vacas etc on guitar, but I think I would try to avoid playing the pieces I already know until i get used to the spacings and 'personality of the new instrument.</p>
<p></p>
<p>I am revising some easier lute pieces - see Lynda Sayce's excellent lessons…</p>

<p>I am revising some easier lute pieces - see Lynda Sayce's excellent lessons <a href="http://www.lutesociety.org/pages/beginners" target="_blank">http://www.lutesociety.org/pages/beginners</a> . I want to try to get a nice touch on it. I dont know whether to do thumb under or thumb out. Maybe thumb under - I was getting reasonably good at that on lute before i got lazy and stopped practicing!</p>
<p></p>
<p>And how to hold the little beast? Like a CG on L leg? - it seems too far away down there. Im using a strap and holding it high resting on R leg , as i hold a lute. I will see how that works</p>
<p>The angels on Robs vihuela pages dont need a strap !</p>

<p>Than you very much.<br/>I will definitely go through your advice.<br/>I saw on your web page that is's possible to organize lesson via skype, so as soon as I will receive vihuela I would like to contact you. It would be great to receive some tips not to make mistakes from the very beginning of playing.<br/>thanks!<br/><br/> </p>

Also the so-called four easy pieces by Valderabano. You can a PDF of the tab on my website here:<br />

As much of the music is polyphonic, I suggest learning Fuenllana's 2-part music. By trying to articulate two voices, you will learn a lot about what makes this music tick. And they are wonderful pieces.
