"Brande des Hermites" and "Volte Praetorius" - it's two works from the collection of popular dances of France, Pascal Bouquet written specifically for learning to play the lute.

thanks john .
I'm thinking of a design for my new build and I wanted you to do the artwork for it. I wanted some inca drawing maybe a tumi soldier. But I most so wondering what would be the shipping cost to Toronto, Ontario Canada.
Also do you make all boxes same size? Or different for 3-4-6 strings? I'm wanting to make a 6 stringer.
Yep, that is a great skill.
Keep up the fantastic burns John...
