Re: Eric's Lute Corner @Blaise Laflamme Thanks, Blaise. I think da Milano and Dowland are the real gold standard of the era. I better work on some Dowland!

Re: Gaspar Sanz Fuga al ayre Español (Aug 25) Here is an update of this piece. It feels fairly secure under the fingers now. I had a dynamic plan, but listening back to myself, I need make it more clear (as usual).

Re: Gaspar Sanz @Wai Thanks, Wai! I remember how well you played Espanoleta. Sanz wrote this for the baroque guitar, but I suppose there would be no reason not to play it on a lute. Maybe I'll give it a try.

Re: 20 Microestudios (No.1 - 10) - Abel Carlevaro @Wai I don't play much modern music either. I was actually more into it in college. I always like trying to play very different types of music though.

Re: Gaspar Sanz Fuga al ayre Espanol (Aug 23) Rodrigo uses this for the second movement of Fantasia para un Gentilhombre, which he calls Ricercare. I'm not sure if it really is a true fugue in the formal sense,…

Re: Eric's Lute Corner @Wai Thanks, Wai, I have seen it it, and I watch Brandon's videos quite a bit. I haven't watched this one in a few months, so maybe I'll check it out again.

Re: 20 Microestudios (No.1 - 10) - Abel Carlevaro @Wai I think this is an improvement. The notes ring out more clearly, and you seem to control it a bit better. Bravo!
