  • @Walvis2007 can u play them all

  • I've been really studying baroque composition, tonality, and musicianship. This was a really wonderful performance, and I enjoyed it a great deal! I'm heavily considering making my own lute right now :).

  • This is really beautiful! The lute has been one of my favorite instruments since I was a kid.

  • Anyone else thinks he looks a bit like Stephen Colbert? Btw Well played!!!

  • wow... that was gorgeous!

  • This is beautifull.

  • @Marmocet yeah you have to make sure not get the double sound when plucking the strings. considering the fact that they are so close together you have to angle your hand a bit differently in order to pluck them individually instead of together its almost like a 12 string guitar if youve ever seen one.
