Lute Society of America Lute Fest 2024 at Case Western University, Ohio, with Paul O'Dette.

I was performing a Fantasia by "Laurencini" from Besard's "Thesaurus Harmonicus"(1603).

In the beginning of the video, we discuss the name and discovery of the composer through a recently found manuscript, the Albani Manuscript, I believe discovered in the possession of Orazio Albani Da Urnino's(Urbino?) family.

Please enjoy and I hope you can take some advice from this class for yourself.

Thanks again to the LSA for the Scholarship and opportunity to come out and experience this festival firsthand. I will never forget it and the wonderful people I met on that journey.

A thanks to the San Diego Early Music Society for helping me get out to Ohio and make this happen as well, you are my family =)

Another thanks to Paul O'Dette for being very kind, patient, funny, and a wonderful human being to talk and learn from about music.

Performer: Brad Rice
Lute: Lute in G a-440, made by Larry K Brown (1990).
