Subject: Baroque lute MSs in Poland

Dear lute netters,

Recently I have posted links to several Baroque (18th century) lute manuscripts.

Apparently several people have (due to the idiotic format - zipped files of 1 
page djvu files) severe problems to download not to mention display the files.

I have finally managed to create a decently small pdf file from one of them - 
25MB. First tries ended with 400MB files ...

Anyway, I am not willing to distribute such files via e-mail. If anybody can 
offer web (ftp?) space for these I will create more pdf files and upload them.

Is Sarge on the list?

The djvu files are pretty easy to manipulate. Get WinDjView and print to a
pdf file (you need a pdf printer driver). If anyone wants these I can post
them on a site and load ALL of them there. They are typically 10-50MB each.

I have a site on dolcesfogato.com that I have posted some others to and this
would be a good place. I would be happy to provide the to Sarge as well.
Let me know if anyone is interested.

Regards
David

Apparently your driver is better than mine :)

I just posted all 10 of the Grüssau manuscripts from the Uniwersytet
Warszawski in Poland. I have included both the PDF files for Mf 2001a/RM
4135a through Mf 2011/RM 4143 and the link to the originals at the
university. The links do not seem to be behaving themselves today. I do not
know if ebuw.uw.edu.pl is down or what. But all of the documents are now
posted at

www.dolcesfogato.com/Music

Let me know if these are useful or if you find any problems.

Regards
David

David,

 Thank you for doing this. You've provided a great service. Some good stuff in those manuscripts. It will take me a while to go through all of it. (Assuming I find a replacement lute soon!)
