Anonymous Untitled Piece with Two Doubles in D Major for Baroque Lute

- From the fascinating manuscript AUS-LHD 243 "Album for the Lute" here is an untitled anonymous piece in D major followed by two different doubles based on that piece. The entire manuscript uses an unusual baroque lute D major tuning: not only are the bass strings tuned to D major as was common (eg F#, C#) but the treble first and fourth courses are tuned up from F to F#. Gives a very sonorous effect, even though the left hand chord shapes feel unusual.
Performed by Daniel Shoskes on a gut strung 11 course baroque lute built by Grant Tomlinson.

I really enjoyed listening to you play this beautiful piece.
Really beautiful, hearing this tuning is so unique. I loved the phrasings of the doubles. Liked and subscribed!
very nice
"Frohe Pfingsten". from Vienna.
Just seen this channel and is amazing. Havent heard anything similar so congratulations. Thank you very much for sharing your art! ❤
Lovely playing, Daniel. I had no idea D Major tuning was so rare on baroque lute.
Thanks. Just to clarify, there are many baroque lute pieces in D major which retunes the bass courses to F# and C# (and B natural if it's 13 course music). The unusual scordatura here is also tuning the 2 treble F courses (1 and 4) to F#. Lauffensteiner does it in 2 suites and there are a few works during the "transitional tuning" period (I think Gaultier especially) in this tuning.
@@kidneykutter Interesting, thanks.
That's a very nice piece, and you play it well...Love It!

Are the manuscript page on the screen the score you are following? Looks very confusing!
Yes, this is the manuscript for the piece. It's written in French tablature. Each line represents a string (or pair of strings) and the letter says on which fret to place your finger: a=open string, b=first fret, c=second fret, etc. Actually very easy to learn and makes playing in different tunings trivially easy.
@@kidneykutter Oh, so very much like today's tab notation.
What is "two doubles"?
A double takes the original work and embellishes it, usually with notes of double the value. Bach did it several times in his solo sonatas
@@kidneykutter So, like ending a jig with a single quarter note rather than two eights?
@@MichaelLevine-n6y If the main piece had a quarter note then yes, the double would usually be 2 eights. Of course to make things more interesting there would be additional variations on this (could be dotted rhythms, could be 4 sixteenths, etx)
