[RFeynman]

Superb. I really enjoyed this.

Thanks very much for sharing.

[raffysnake]

woa nice. are you using gut strings?

[robicool]

Do you use guitar technique with your right hand? Also, do you play with nails? You create such a soft, yet clear sound, it's beautiful!

[trolabe]

I'm using mostly guitar technique but sometimes I play the runs with my thumb and index fingers(lute technique).

I don't think any lute players use nails.

[alienplatypus]

This is beautiful!

It's amazing how much of a difference a musician's interpretation of the piece can influence the way it sounds. I have seen several versions of the Frog Galliard on YouTube, and yours is definitely my favorite -- you have an excellent feel for the flow of the music.

[trolabe]

Thank you, I really appreciate your comment. I think that without flow the music is dead and I'm glad you could sense the flow.

hi, could you give me info, about the lute you are playing who made it where we can get one,etc, ill apreciate it,thanks

[clementmatchett]

Lovely again: perhaps I am mistaken, or my settings are different, but the sound is better than on your previous videos. Anyway, straight on to my favourites.

[trolabe]

Thank you.

You are not mistaken, in my last videos I'm using a digital recorder( Korg D4).

[kidneykutter]

Congratulations. A deceptively difficult piece played beautifully.

[trolabe]

Thank you so much.

[xAmandine]

It is beautiful! I love your playing!

[trolabe]

Thank you, I'm glad you like it.

Hello,

Good sound you have, do you use an video-camara or webcam? By the way, your lute-play is very good!

[trolabe]

Thank you.

I use a video camera and a digital recorder.

Hello Trond, beautiful one !

even if the P90 is nice, this one (the "Folger" one...) is the most beautiful !

[trolabe]

Thank you, Val.

I agree, but the others are nice too.
