Gilbert Isbin – New Compositions For 13c Baroque Lute, Vol. 3
Foreword
This book is a collection of original pieces for 13 course Baroque Lute.
My main goal was to compose melodic accessible today’s music all based on 12 bar or 8 bar blues progressions for this wonderful instrument.
The tuning : 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13
F4 D4 A3 F3 D3 A2 G2 F2 E2 D2 C2 B1 A1
The indicated tempos are optional.
It’s of course possible to perform these pieces on an 11 course lute.
Just play the B1 and the A1 up an octave on the 6th course.
I hope these compositions will find their way to the repertoire of today’s performers.
Gilbert Isbin.
