I am learning this work on the guitar and found your post very interesting! It's a beautiful and fun piece of music and you rightly show how many interpretations and variations can be found across the repertoire. Its is easy to get the wrong impression that much renaissance and baroque music was rigidly composed, rather than being a living and evolving creation. Thanks for your post.
You, madam, just got yourself a subscriber.
What a delightful channel.
Thank you for your kind words! 💕 Your support is very much appreciated!
Another wonderful video. I really enjoyed it and put the Tarling book into my Amazon basket. It should prove beneficial to my musicology studies as a supplemental text.
What an informative and helpful presentation this is. I can’t imagine how much time you spent preparing and producing this. And, of course, the lute playing and brief vocal examples are a delight. It’s late in my part of the world but The Frogg will be on my music stand in the morning. Thank you. DB
Thank you for your kind words David. Yes, it was a bit of a slog to get this out there! 💕 So nice to hear you'll be playing the Frog! 🐸
....👏👏👏...many thanks Elizabeth for this video ... and for your important work and contribution to the dissemination and study of the lute .... a warm greeting ... waiting for the next video ...🙏🙇🏻
Thank you Renzo! 💕So glad you liked it...you never know!! More videos to come! 😉
@@luteweb 🙏🙇🏻..Thank you Elizabeth!
Thanks Liz for this marvellous and insightful synthesis of context, playing technique and the wisdom of Aristotle - together with lovely playing and beautiful singing from Hannah too.
I shall listen to the Frog with fresh ears!
Thank you Sarah for your kind words! 💕
Watched your performance of this Dowland piece, and I think I heard Pachelbel’s canon in the progression, so now I’m watching this to learn more. Thank you!
So glad you liked it! Thank you for watching and for sharing your thoughts! ✨ Have a wonderful Christmas!
This is a fantastic watch - thank you for taking the time to put it together.
Thank you for listening Alistair! 💕💕
Such wonderful information! I am enjoying these quite a bit🎼🎶
Thank you Brian for watching, it's wonderful to have your support! 💕
Thank you for this.
Thank you so much! I love this song and greatly admire Dowland. You have helped me to understand the content more. Hannah is a jewel and your playing is superb.
Thank you for your kind words Kathleen! 💕 Thanks also for supporting Luteweb! ✨
If the frog references the French alliance is this an early use of it? I assumed it would be later and because of an English revulsion for French culinary tastes.
I was pleased to see that Sting of the Police plays lute and has released a record of Dowland in concept album form.
Excellent video that will make many of us happy.
Could be? hard to know for sure!💕
If I may expand on superb... Illuminating even for myself who doesn't play the lute. Your playing is articulate, crisp, inviting, relaxed. The singing was masterful, unencumbered, musical, and, I would think, true to the period.
If I may indulge in a bit if namedropping, having to do with "surfing" the web, It was Vinton (Vint) Cerf who invented the logic of internet protocol addressing while he and others in DARPA were inventing the Gutenberg Press of our Cyber Era, the ARPNET, as it was know at the the time, the WWW as later popularized. And so, there are some among us who tip our hat to Vint when we cerf the web.
I will give a nod to Vint! Thanks for sharing this and for your kind words James! 💕
Brilliant!
Thank you for watching! 💕
Superb!
So kind James! 💕
Enjoy your presentation, bravo!
Thank you for watching! 💕
Loved it! ❤️ 🎼
Thank you for listening and for your wonderful support for luteweb! 💕😉
How wonderful is your singing and playing, and explanations of the pieces. I love the Lute, although I do also love most musical instruments, and songs in 1500 to 1700.
Thank you for your kind words Ron! 💕
Absolutely brilliant! Many thanks for your playing and explanations. 🎉
You are welcome! Thanks for the kind words! 💕
What a wonderful encounter with this video... A random ? I am currently working on this piece (for an upcoming evening with friends...). I "skimmed" this piece a few years ago, and I became a "fan" of it and even more so by listening to you... I was wondering about the fingerings for the triplets, and the mixing, during the piece, between the thumb-in and thumb-index-middle technique! Thanks to you, I got the best answer I could have asked for ! Thank you also for your talent and the way you analyze this magnificent galliard from the brilliant Dowland!
Gosh! This has made my day! ✨ Thanks so much for sharing this with me! Thank you for watching and for supporting Luteweb! 💕
Хорошая у тебя ученица! Успеха ей и тебе!
Thank you Anton!
just got yourself a subscriber. 😁
very informative. Thanks.😀
Thank you Michael! 💕
Hello, thank you for the full information! As a guitarist I am curious to know what tuning the lute is played. Best regards and keep on the good work!
The lute is tuned in G with an interval of a 3rd between the 3rd and 4th course. You can play lute music on the guitar by tuning your G to an F#. Check out my series You Can Play This th-cam.com/video/SkOosxARf6U/w-d-xo.html
Perhaps "frog" is a reference to leaps made by athletic/exhibitionist male dancers (female dancers were expected to be more genteel).
Thats a really good suggestion! Thank you for this! 💕
