impeccable rendition! quaint and warm and all that. also, very good pronunciation on leah's part, considering she's never spoken it... she got all the final Es! (Es at the end of words in french aren't pronounced when spoken, but they are when sung. just a little fun fact).
You have those spider fingers needed to play an instrument like that. Great duet. Loved it. The Venetian in Las Vegas hires talent with that style of music.
This is really quite nice- one of my favorites of this composer to sing. Leah does an excellent job of the French, by the way; one would never know that she was apparently clueless.
Please tell me that you brought your lute to school?
An interesting diversion from your picking and bottleneck - your Lute technique is as good as your other fretted intruments - is there no fretted instrument that you won't tackle. Your colleague sure has a lovely voice too.
BTW try checking out British flatpicker Chris Newman - he's one of my current guitar faves.
That's really nice, the instrument is beautiful. As DuneDingDong said these songs are in old French and even we French (I'm French too) do not understand very well what they say. I think your friend is doing very well.
I've been following your channel for about three weeks, keep on doing this guys, your videos are really great. Amazing.
C'est magnifique! je regarde souvent tes vidéos, tu as vraiment un talent fou et tes amis aussi! Pour la prononciation, ne vous inquiétez pas, c'est du vieux français donc on ne comprendrait pas tout, même chanté par un français! C'est cool de voir des instruments peu communs comme le luth :)
@DigitalCable well, I find it to be. you have to be much more delicate and precise with it, yet play loud enough to be heard (it is pretty quiet). also, "correct" renaissance lute technique dictates the use of no nails, but i have to keep mine for the sake of my other instruments.

Another triumph! Please keep 'em coming -- especially the (kind of promised) "Souls Like the Wheels" tutorial!

Fabulous, both of you. Your soprano friend has a lovely voice, unlike today's pop voices.

I've got to say, for not having the vaguest idea, your pronunciations were pretty damn good. Leah, I will miss your voice.
