I feel strongly about making a large quantity of lute music accessible
to all for free. See my "manifesto" on the subject", published in LSA
Quarterly in 2014.  Over the years, I have collected the pieces on
this site from the internet or privately from contributors, or have
intabulated, arranged and/or realized them myself. I have edited all of
them and formatted them to fit nicely on US letter size paper (8.5 x 11
in), though a very few are formatted for US legal size (8.5 x 14 in). I
have not formatted any for A4, as life is too short. Again, if you have
the fronimo software, it is pretty easy to reformat these to taste.
In all cases I have tried to create copy that would fit gracefully on
a music stand with no or minimal page turns.

I feel that the lute community will best be served by having readily
available free copy that is easy to read.
