รายละเอียด
The music of the three generations of Italian composer/performers on this recording traces lute music in its development from dance, polyphonic and popular roots to a repertoire of stylized expressive abstract composition, music of extraordinary originality, rich harmony and exquisite detail. Unlike the lute music of Elizabethan and Tudor England, the majority of Italian music, beginning around 1500, survives in printed sources. A moveable type music printing technique developed by Ottaviano Petrucci meant that many copies of a lute book could be reproduced at relatively small cost. (Anyone looking at Petrucci’s prints today will immediately recognize them as works of art in themselves)
Alan Rinehart has made many contributions to the guitar world as a performer, teacher, and music editor. Completing studies at Western Michigan University and a Professional Music Training Diploma from Vancouver Community College, he studied lute repertoire and technique in London, England at the Early Music Centre with Anthony Rooley, Jakob Lindberg, Nigel North and Emma Kirkby. From 1983 to 2003 he was a faculty member of the music schools at the University of British Columbia and Vancouver Community College
