'Authentic' performance
practice. A sparkling variety of serious, humorous and dance pieces for two small viols played 'the
lyra way' in both 'Bass Viol' tuning and 'Bandora Set' tuning.
Lyra
viol music can be both serious and humorous. In the first quarter of the
seventeenth-century playing the viol the 'lyra way' became fashionable. The music is generally chordal and imitative of music for
plucked instruments like the lute, and is written in tablature like
French lute tablature. Many different innovative tuning systems were
used. |
