Early Baroque (Late Renaissance?) passacaglia for lute. As for the lute being eclipsed by the classical guitar, I share much of JPF’s thoughts about the harpsichord being neglected for the piano. The lute has a mellow yet crisp timbre, and upon attack and sustain sounds much cleaner than guitar (which can sound rather clumsy by comparison). I…[Read more]

I agree… I’d rather hear things composed for lute ON the lute, and I do prefer the sound to the guitar.

Dr Farrell, I am not sure, but I think the reason why original instruments were/are not used that much has more to do with finding talented/virtuoso players of such instruments (and those instruments can be extremely expensive). The tuning of the instruments of that era is also a very delicate thing that must be done right (and may not please all…[Read more]
-
It is true that such instruments are more expensive, and hence, more difficult to learn, because they are hand crafted. And it is also true that the tempering systems for tuning them are known to a few people. But still, I think part of it is the mass production effect… and the resulting lazy ears….

We are still waiting for a little taster of the new Pipe Organ!

Or is China buying them all up?

It is not here yet. If if ever DOES get you I will let everyone know.

Playing a period instrument like the violin with a different temperament or tuning than the contemporary one is a real challenge regardless of whether the instrument is hand-crafted or not, because the violin does not have frets.
P.S. In middle-eastern music (Turkey, Iran, Arab world) the violin is one of the few instruments that can be used…[Read more]-
A simple but charming example of Persian-tuned piano composition:
(In Iran, the santur or dulcimer has always been very popular, and it sound a bit like the harpsichord, which explains the Iranian interest in piano)

Jason Tracks Her Down. Lots of applause in Auckland but not in very many other places. Take a peak at the first hour and a half containing interviews with event attendees, most who seem woefully unaware of present-day reality

Found on my internet rambles this morning: “The narrative the subject of torture artfully distracts the public from the very essence of why torture is employed in the first place. The target of the act is not the individual being tortured; the target is the public itself. The objective is not to uncover truth, but rather to buttress suppositions a…[Read more]

As JPF would probably say, the purpose is to “shock the medium”.

Sound of Invisible Waters — by Deuter
This is when you really want to get away from it all, dive deep, and return to your “aquatic self.”
Plus composer is German, which I think should curry favor with the German establishment in Sioux Falls 😉

And to think, that, to Hass, this was a medium-sized harpsichord. Imagine what the Bachs’ music would sound like on the Hass Triple, or the big instruments at Zimmerman’s coffee house!

A busy day today, and a lot of progress on chapter two, with now a provisional outline of chapters 1-6 done. I finally found the way to organize this monster. This will be very controversial, perhaps even off-putting to some people, but trying together threads carefully laid down all the way back in Giza Death Star Deployed.

Thanks for the tidbit on the subject matter.

Well… I’ve been working all night, and listening to my other favorite Bach, Carl Phillip. Mozart is alleged to have said “He(CPE Bach) is the father; we are the children. All that we do right, we owe to him. He who does not own to this, is a scoundrel.” Here’s why (from 1753): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZPWeL-7HkJE

What did you do, this video has apparently been deleted! Didn’t know CPE was so controversial

Over two days I’ve listened several times . . . excellent sound, even on an ipad. Try again . . .

@danathomasHey dana – use hooktube to try and load the video, you might be getting DSN interference and ‘copyright’ regulations.. Hooktube plays the youtube content.

I’ve never had this type of blocking before for classical music – maybe there is a Hungarian angle here…

Could these incidents be the result of directed energy ? I’m wondering if there are now ordinary people out there who have this technology.
Yes
That’s a worry. Long-term, if ordinary people can build these things, then guns will be a thing of the past.
