Funny you should write that, Mark! My technique (if you can call it that) is 'homemade' as well, and not too long ago, I made exactly the same decision. I've made up my mind to learn to play the wonderful Fantasia in Jane Pickering's lute book, be...
Hi Waling,
if you're still looking for this piece in French tab, you can find most of Fuenllana's works (including this one) on Serge Gerbode's website, at

Josquin's duo is in book I, number 8 (av...
Francisco, what you are doinbg is great, so you don't really need a larger continuo group. I look forward to good recordings some day. Keep up the good work!
Francisco,
I have listened to the videos on youtube. I think you are doing something very worthwhile - good research, good arrangements and good playing. Well done. I do wish, though, that there could be one or two more instruments on the continu...
I play 11c lute, baroque guitar, theorbo - I used to play vihuela, and you can hear some of my vihuela recordings on this page. You can hear a lot more of my recordings at www.songoftherose.co.uk
Hello Rob. Finally purchasing a guitar, and discussing of it with dear Sasha
( new vihuela probably next year). Where could we find the nice guitar pieces from a portuguese manuscript you play on your Vimeos? . I haven't talked recently with Jonathan, but is music you played with him "in the box"?
All the best
Thank you Rob. I've had this guitar for nearly 20 years. Recently I had the frets leveled and crowned. Now it is a pure joy to play. Have a great day! Bryan Prud'Homme
Hello Rob. I found the answers of my questions concerning vihuela on your site (reporting at Sasha Batov's workshop, which I found very useful and precise). A deeper reflexion on a Dias vihuela convinced me. So I've to convince my own government now!!
Thanks Rob. I want to upload more music, but apparently the program only take mp3s, as long as most of my itunes library is in mp4 format, the program says it's not acceptable. I'll try again, anyway...
congrat for your new recording!
In thinking about the member Profile Information, I wonder if it might not be useful/informative to have some more of that made public. The website info, for example, would direct users of the group to websites that have even more sound files, info, and scores. I'm thinking of your site(s) -- and maybe there needs to be a way to enter and display more than one. Monica also has much useful information. The Lute Ning displays what instruments a person plays, for example. I don't see a need for location -- that is already showing below our photo. Maybe there are other interesting sections that might be added.
