Francesco da Milano (1497-1543)

[@allanolivier9589]

This beautiful music reminds me of a soft gentle wind blowing through trees in autumn in my country. The winds make the leaves dance as they float down to earth. Lovely music beautifully played. Well done!!

Thank you, very much for your kind words!

Glorious recording which truly conveys the spirit, nobility and enduring power of the lute. Thank you, Caius, for this gift to soul and senses.

I love everything about this album - from the musick, to the sound of the lute, to the way the player plays it. The Lute is bright, yet deep, just as it is angelick yet earthy. The tempo moves forward, but, happily, never with an objectivist's predecided metronomic sense, but, by the moment to moment decision of the player what must be launched and what must be reeled in. Of course, the compositions are very special, for while they have that heavy theoretical sense that the great Italian luteworks tend to have in the 16th century, they are more melodic. The 6 course lute, as do the six string acoustic and classical guitar, has a lot of limitations, yet, listening to this, you would never know it.

I am glad that you enjoy this recording. Thank you very much for your kind words.

Thank You very much for this upload! This is really great music! One of the composition is a original version of the song "Pod nebom Golubym" (Under a blue sky) of the Russian composer Boris Grebenshikov.

[@pietrospadetta3955]

Thk CAIUS HERA for your passion....we would have more persons that search for this music....we don't miss our past and pieces like this like many Barocco pmasterpieces are the spirit of our history........i suggest to all to hear the concerto of Pasquaòe Bini in re major...the third movement is something of amazing.

[@beasheerhan4482]

Lorinczi Gyorgy, he who made the lute is as big a star as the performer or the composer, this because this lute is a rare 'Renaissance Lute' that can truly sing.

[@mikaelk2009]

beautiful - this is the way I hear it played when I read the scores ! A model for the lute / vihuela players among us.

A beautiful selection of Milano Lute Music! Thank you, excellent listening along with reading about Renaissance Neo-Platonism. Can you guide me to the tab you used for "De mon triste desplaisir (Richafort)"? I'd like to read through and learn to play this sweet piece of Music.

[@jurgenb.4611]

I absolutely love this recording. But can anyone explain to me why there aren't any grace notes? I ask as a lute beginner. In every method book one is told sooner or later that they are a must in Renaissance lute playing. Just asking. And wondering.

[@kyuslauten]

Thank you for your kind words. In many lute music sources there are some signs for ornaments, especially in dance movements, Francesco da Milano's tablatures seems to lack these elements. But the beautiful part in Renaissance music is that anyone can give his own interpretation to the music, this is just my humble approach. Peace.

wat een prachtig instrument, en wat wordt de klank goed weergegeven in deze opname! Maar jammer van die stijve agogiek... ce instrument frumos și cât de bine sunetul este reprodus în această înregistrare! Dar păcat de acel agogic rigid ...
