I don't get over to the "Seasonistas Play Other Instruments" section often enough. This was a pleasant surprise Sabine. I'm looking forward to seeing your progress. What a lovely instrument.

@@PHJimY Thanks so much for your support and encouragement, Jim. I'm pleased you like it. I'm enjoying the time and studies. There's a lot to take in. 😄

Sounding good and coming along nicely. The renaissance lute is a lovely instrument.

Thank you so much, Andrew. I'm glad I took the plunge. It'll keep me on my toes. I absolutely love spending time with the instrument, and the repertoire is just fantastic.

That instrument sounds so lovely, Sabine ... as does your playing! Well done!

[@ukeanflute]

@@limousinlil Thanks so much, Val. I'm glad you like it. I'm always amazed how big and resonant the sound is when I pick it up. I'm still in the honeymoon phase 🥰.

Это явный прогресс! Это очень приятно слушать.❤ Так. Правую руку у вас не видно, к сожалению. С левой рукой. Постановок левой руки на ренессансной лютне - целых три разных. Сейчас вы используете одну из них. Это хорошо! Но /и в виде второго варианта, попробуйте развернуть кисть левой руки так, чтобы пальцы были фактически перпендикулярны струнам = параллельны ладам. С немного округлой кистью. Это будет постановка руки номер 2. Это позволит вам в дальнейшем легко играть, допустим, трехголосную полифонию 16 века почти не напрягаясь.)) В нашем понимании, трехголосные аккорды, - но там, у нас в 16 веке, ))) это конечно не аккорды. Мне очень нравится то, что у вас получается! Оно душевное и красивое.❤ Очень приятно слышать. Да, письмо вам на ваш новый е-мейл вам отправил, ловите!

Thank you so much for your clear feedback and your support, Anthony! I'm glad you like it. I will experiment with angling my left hand more as you describe. I won't be playing three-voice polyphony for a long while, but it pays to be prepared. And yes, you're right. I should have my right hand visible too. That would provide me with so much more data. Next time!

Lovely Sabine. How long have you had the lute? I had one for a few years from the Early Music Shop in Saltaire but I could never really get along with it so sold it on.

[@ukeanflute]

Thanks so much, John! Yes, that's where I got mine from. I've had it since the end of June. It's a daunting, yet exciting new musical adventure. I'll be taking some lessons, methinks!

@@ukeanflute that’s a good idea. Early Music Shop is a really cool place.
