Bonjour Val, Puis-je vous demander quelle source vous utilisez? Quand j’écoute votre version, celle de North ou de Smith, la deuxième section est différente de celles que j'ai pu trouver sur internet (edition de Sarge Gerbode et de Richard Civiol). Au début je pensais que c’était une histoire d'ornementation mais toutes vos versions sont tellement proches les unes des autres et éloignées des miennes, que je me dit que la source doit être différente. Bravo en tout cas pour votre version!

[noobatloote]

@noobatloote L’édition de Diana Poulton chez Faber peut-être? Il va faloir que je remette la main dessus...

[Luthval]

@noobatloote

Bonjour,

J'ai le fac similé du "Folger lute book" (MS 1610.1, Washington) (édité par la Société Anglaise de luth), Poulton propose la version du Cambridge Dd 5.78 (qui de ce fait est devenue la plus connue...) que je joue aussi sur une autre vidéo...

Val ;-)

[noobatloote]

@Luthval Merci d'avoir répondu si rapidement! J'ai trouvé entre temps l’édition d'Alain Veylit qui pour la lachrimae pavan donne pas moins de 6 versions... dont la Folger. Merci encore!

[archlutesmith]

Thanks for posting. Dowland's masterpiece.I like the slower playing of it.

[Luthval]

@archlutesmith

Thanks a lot ;-)

Hi Luthval. I just find a copy of Poulton's collection in a library and decided to venture a little bit in french tablature. Can I ask what does a single "#" in the tablature mean?

Yan

[Luthval]

@chengyanslc It is a sign for ornament, a "grace" ;-)

Val

[chengyanslc]

One of the most melancholic tune by Dowland. How much harder is this than "Sir John Smith his Almain"?

[Luthval]

@chengyanslc

I don't know if it is harder, longer yes... so you have to keep the flow (of tears)...

[chengyanslc]

@Luthval I tried this piece and immediately fell in love with it. IMO this is one of the most satisfying piece one can set his hands on, even at a very slow(beginner) tempo.

[Luthval]

@chengyanslc

Perhaps it is not a beginner's piece, but anyway enjoy !

Val

[key2kingdom]

Fantastic sound. This is one of my favourite Dowland pieces.

[Luthval]

@key2kingdom

Merci ;-)

[natsakay]

Thanks again...

each time I listen to this lachrimae antiquae, I'm touched by that melancoly and beauty...

Very nice interpretation...

Nat.

[Luthval]

@natsakay

Thank you very much Nat ;-)

Val

Bonjour Monsieur Val

Chaque fois que j'entends parler de la musique pour luth, l'humeur dans mon esprit devient plus profonde et plus profonde.

Et la beauté du son à la fois et la décoration est adorable.

S'il vous plaît ajouter moi comme votre ami pour que je puisse visiter votre site Web à l'écoute souvent.

Plus I am thinking of getting the Renaissance Lute (8-Course) Soon. So I could get a little help by listening the cord and following your play.

Mes salutations à vous

[Luthval]

Thanks a lot, I hope you will have asu muche pleasure with your lute than I have with mine.

Val

[wagerfilmART]

Dowland is always lovely to come back to.

[Luthval]

Thanks

V.

[Pichounator]

The passages at 2:07 and 2:53 are my favorite parts.

[Luthval]

For me it is the all composition ;-)

Val

[Ayanfe13]

Forever Dowland for me, so touching and moving and so well interpreted here and in other videos too. It helps me to write my story playing in 1620 to accompany my flow of thoughts. Thanks to you.

[Luthval]

Thanks a lot. Hope your story is coming well ;-)

Val

[AlamoCityCello]

Thank you very much ;-)

I just studied what it is Lachrime Pavaen on web. That flow of tears. I played guitar in the past, so I played with recorder such as with guitar from Levocsky lutnovy zbornik+Thesaurus Harmonicus and I know to play such Pavaen, but I saw on web Brugger and saw it is written on web it is Flow of tears, so there are two main ways how to play it or more and some parts recorder plays differently than guitar! I got charismas on similar to guitar playings and rythm...I am sorry I have not whole

[EvaBartosova]

Beautiful

[Luthval]

Thank you ;-)

Val

[inquietitudo]

Bonsoir Val, can I ask you a suggestion I start to play a syrian lute with twelve chords, but I do not have the risha, the tipical plektrum, do you think I can use a morbid occidental plektrum? Thanks very much to the best lute player that I know!!!

Federico

[Luthval]

Hello, I'm not specialist of oriental lute. I think the plectrum is softer than the "modern" ones, but it is possible to find some oriental plectrum on the net. Just make a search.

Good luck

Val

[Hoodooswamp]

Beautiful! Perfect!

[Hoodooswamp]

I also just fell in love with the lute. Unfortunately where I live, there is none to be found.

[Luthval]

Look for the Lute Society of your country, you'll have the adresses of makers ;-) (or if you're looking for a cheap one, but not a concert one, look on ebay for EMS lute)

Thanks for the messages ;-)

Val

[Hoodooswamp]

Thank you so much!

You play so beautiful. I always come here to listen to true art, coming from your lute.

[Blood4Thunder]

I have been playing guitar for years, and only yesterday did I discover the beauty of the Lute, this video has only further inspired me. I will be buying a Lute shortly! Thank you very much for posting this, it has opened doors for me. Keep it up!
