Some classical guitar pieces are played in lute tuning often with a capo. He said he knows the piece on guitar so it’s not too different, just the bass notes added and some left hand fingering simplified to omit the basses.

@@brentcantrell9334 There's been a lot of really fast pieces like that. Another 'metal-sounding' piece is the presto from Vivaldi's Summer, written in 1723, also with a pretty fast tempo. Paganini's Caprice No. 5 (written in 1817) is a tempo of 150 BPM, while Flight of the Bumblebee is a tempo of 144 BPM, I think. And that's only two pieces, a lot of Chopin's Etudes were written in extremely fast tempos. Paganini was know for writing extremely difficult and fast pieces. Liszt (inspired by Paganini) was as well. And for metal, I think Shostakovitch's 8th string quartet (specifically the 2nd movement) sounds like metal for a string quartet.

I was pretty young, but the lutentist blew my socks off. She also allowed people to touch & pick up her instrument & I have never felt anything so weightless in my life as her lute. Astonishing.

Thank you for sharing your impressions on how it feels to play. Often times I see baroque scores and I find them so challenging. Its comforting to know that's because of the "translation" to the guitar, which was not as well designed to perform pieces designed for the lute. My respect for the lute and the compositions made for this instrument just increased.

I did sight read some of 996 briefly and read through the other suites just to see how they felt. NOT easy. Bach, unlike Weiss, did not play the baroque lute. He composed on the "Lautenwork" which was a lute-harpsichord. So it doesn't fit in the hand as idiomatically as Weiss. Having said that, I'm positive I'll be posting some Bach at some point ;)

Here's a trick that may work for you. On my Elizabethan lute (13 strings), I can quickly play almost any guitar piece by ignoring the top string (first course). Chord shapes fall naturally from the 2nd course. So you can fret a D shape as long as you don't play the first course. This gives me a feel for the piece on the lute making an easy transposition from guitar, then I re-learn it for the lute. Dowland, Cutting pieces are my favourites. Also, I have fallen in love with the natural reverb. It is akin to architecture in sound. This is particularly true when the strings are tuned to the natural resonant frequency of the instrument.

One thing that I love about the Baroque approach to tone making is that it's so electric, whether lute or harpsichord or clavichord or double reed instruments, and the whole approach to composition, and reinforcing tones and creating timbral variations through octave doublings and fifths - well, let's just say that it's the way I think about music. The thread really got picked up again when we developed synthesizers in the 1960's...
