Duos de luths - Lute duets

[debs4mysweetbaby]

oh this is wonderful val!! :)

[guerillacat]

were can one purchase a lute?

[Luthval]

First make a search for the lute society of your country, there you'll find links to makers ;-)

Warning : lute are expensive instruments (as hand made, not industrial) There are EMS lutes cheaper but lower quality. So start saving money ;-)

Good luck !

Val

[eineScheibeBrot]

very relaxing ... it's a nice musical support when doing homework.

[Luthval]

Thanks ;-)

Val

[robicool]

Well done to Arthur! He kept perfect timing! I get very nervous playing infront of a camera, he played just fine!

[UkeVal]

Yes, and all was first and only one take.

Val

[hardyromeo]

Hi, Val.

I got my own lute made by Japanese luthier, and mastered this tune

-only Arthur's part. I am enjoying a lot playing a lute.

Nice !

Hope you'll find a duet partner... more fun

The duet sounds really fantastic. This music is very beautiful, it really makes me feel peaceful.

Are you going to upload more duets in the future?...

:)

Saludos, R.

[Luthval]

Thanks !

Perhaps there will be more, I don't know...

Val

[sonomabob]

Very nice. Played with spirit. Lute music can be a bit colorless to me.

[Luthval]

Thanks for listening ;-) It is just student work here....

[leonpal58]

Grazie a Arthur e Valery. Finalmente una buona musica.

[Luthval]

Grazie Mille ;-)

Val

[ethoglow]

I am an avid guitarist and enthusiast of history and I found these pieces to be very delightful. I am very impressed with your students performance in duet. It's not easy to perform in-sync with another player, especially when you first start out and are really focused on more important things like hitting all the right notes or keeping tempo etc. Keep up the great work Arthur!

[Luthval]

Thanks for him, it was his first recording and he made it like a pro... one take for all pieces ;-)

Regards,

Val

[hardyromeo]

Hi, Val. This is a first time for me to give a comment to you tube.

I really love your music.

I've just started to have lute lessons.

I'd like you to tell me about your instrument by Stephen Murphy, because I have to get my own instrument.

[Luthval]

Hello, thanks for commenting on my video. Here my student is playing on a student lute by Didier Jarny, and I'm playing on the concert lute by Stephen Murphy. I'll tell you more in private message.

Best regards

Valéry

[Aficionadorientalis]

Masterful!

[Luthval]

[trolabe]

Hello Val

I have been listening to you for about a year now but I have missed these lovely duets until now. Lovely.

Regards Trond

[Luthval]

Thanks Trond, we had fun to do this, and Arthur was not impressed at all by the video camera ;-)

V.

[Novocomense]

Complimenti ai due esecutori! Non avevo ancora mai sentito suonare una "mantovana".

[Luthval]

Grazie mille ;-)

[papermason]

This is just delightful, so beautifully played. 5 Stars, Favorites, My Playlist - "Ancient Music". I appreciate this era of music, it is soulful, it plumbs the depths of emotion in a way that the best modern music cannot. Thank you for this beauty.

I love the 2nd movement, La Mantovana ! Le luth est un très bel instrument baroque.

I have just subscribed your videos. Looking forward your other interpretations...

[javimartin1969]

Thank You very much Professor Valery. This show me your wonderful quality for to teach this wonderful renaissance music across your videos.

Bravo!from japan.

The simple duet encourages the heart of a listening person.

[Luthval]

Thank you very much, I will transmit to my duettist Arthur.

Val ;-)

[AmersfoortTristan]

Indeed. If you listen to it, you feel yourself calm down and all the stress that is on your heart dissapears and is replaced by a calm courage.

@Luthval. It's great to listen to your music again. Your pupil has a lot of talent.

[grupolavolta]

Great stuff! I play "La Montovana" on my charango, and it was wonderful hearing it on lute!

[ziogoku]

Wonderful!

[AndanteLargo]

Arthur and Val! This is beautiful! I have always loved lutduets and played many on the guitar with a friend. I miss that! This is truly inspiering! Thank you and HAPPY NEW YEAR!

[PuckMedia]

A truly beautiful recording, a good work of art. I particularly enjoyed the last duo movement that is really pleasant. Nice also the Bossinensis's Ricercare. Thanks for sharing.

[journalcc]

5 étoiles !

[rfdarsie]

Very nice. Your student needs to relax his RH fingers more but this takes a long time to learn...

[JPTRAN]

Très belle vidéo. merci

[wwelti]

I was never a friend of guitar duets. Now i am really surprised how beautiful a lute duet sounds! This is an eye opener. Thank you very much Val! Your student is really doing well.

I also really like the selection of music you were playing.

This is going to my favorites.

Regards, Wilfried

[AmersfoortTristan]

Great video and I hope that you and your apprentice will do more duets because the sound really get's enriched with two instruments.

Bon Noël.

[cyborlite]

I hope you two will do more duets. It's such a full, rich sound. Thanks, Val, and Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

[Taloon64]

It is nice to see this talent being passed on - living through the ages.

"Fronimo, Val, can be proud of his pupil, Eumatio (Arthur)."

Vincenzo Galilei

Excellent ! Great thanks !

[GaleoDeus]

Wonderful! Congrats to Arthur!

[Liranm89]

Loved it! loved your playing and the music. LOL the second piece (La mantovana) sounds like Israel's national Anthem. you should check it out!

[romford25]

The melody for Hatikvah is based on "La Mantovana", a 16th century Italian song. Its earliest known appearance in print was in early 17th-century Italy as "Ballo di Mantova." This melody gained wide currency in Renaissance Europe,

[romford25]

being recorded variously as the Spanish hymn "Virgen de la Cueva" ("Virgin of the Cave"); the Sephardi melody for the Hallel prayer; the Yiddish folk song " the Prayer for the Dew," the Polish folk song "Pod Krakowem," a Swedish folksong; and as the Ukrainian "Kateryna Kucheryava.". This melody had been famously used by Bedřich Smetana in his symphonic poem Má vlast as "Vltava" (Die Moldau).

[Luthval]

Thanks for the interesting infos.

val

[romford25]
