Andreas Martin and his theorbo (lute). It can be pronounced
thee or' bo, tay' or ba, thor' ba (mixtures thereof) or for something completely different, sometimes it is called a chittarone!
We played some of his work this afternoon from his CD,
Bach works for lute (Harmonia Mundi 987051).
em>Notice the strings on the left that hang beyond the fingerboard (similar to a harp-quitar).
Here is a link to his bio. http://web.me.com/andreasmartin/Andreasmartin.es/home.html
I hope this was a little entree to the world of this member of the fascinating lute family!
