WOW!!! Trolabe this piece is hauntingly beautiful. You played it wonderful enough to portray the sadness of the piece.

[trolabe]

Thank you for your nice words.

Very nice, Trond. I thought your phrasing was perfect for this Tombeau.

I refer you to Hopkinson Smith playing works by Denis Gaultier on : La Rethorique Des Dieux, Suites pour le Luth, I. II., XII issued on LP by Das Alte Werk and on CD by Astree. Nonetheless, very beautiful playing. Merci!

M. Trolabe: Thank you for this. While you have played this flawlessly, (amidst a visually very pleasing, if not period 17th century, room), I must comment upon your method of non-attack, or perhaps it would be better to say, lack of sustained tension, within the phrases. Without introducing this feeling of selective "holding back" and "falling forward" as one progresses through the phrase, one looses a depth of emotion from the piece, and leaves it only two-dimensional. cf. Hopkinson Smith

Thank you for taking your time to make a review and I agree in your criticism. I will be working on this in the future.

I find it flattering to be compared with Hopkinson Smith, in my opinion he is the greatest lutenist in our time.

[leadstring66]

awsome!! on of the greatest movements ever written in my opinion.

[trolabe]

Thank you for your kind words
