Lute Society and other news..


1. THE VIHUELA REPERTOIRE ON CD ROM – STRICTLY WHILE STOCKS LAST!

Carlos Gonzalez of the Spanish vihuela society has been surprised to discover in his house one last unsold box of the CD ROM of the entire vihuela repertoire in colour facsimile.


The Lute Society has been allotted 10 copies, of which the first five have arrived [I’ll pick up the rest at the Gijon Festival] – so it’s first come, first served! The price is £45 including postage anywhere in the world. Cheques or paypal payments to sales@lutesoc.co.uk are welcome – but email me to reserve your copy first!!!


Best wishes, Chris Goodwin

2. JIM TYLER MEMORIAL

Lute Society members visiting the Los Angeles area on 22 March are invited to attend a memorial programme, "Remembering James Tyler," to be held at the University of Southern California's Alfred Newman Concert Hall at 7:30p.m. It will include images, recordings, and video clips of things and events that Jim regarded as highlights of his multi-faceted career as a musician, director, arranger, author, and educator, as well as performances of a few of the pieces that he loved to play by some of his most prized former students, now professional musicians in the field of early music. A reception follows the programme.
