Mlle Bocquet (Anne or Marguerite) nicknamed 'la Discrete' who played 'miraculously on the lute'... ran a salon with a Mlle de Scudery from 1653-1659. Here she was in touch with various artists and some of the founders of the Acadamie Francaise. Well known writers, poets and musicians performed in the Salon, including the famous and brilliant lute player and singer Angelique Paulet. Manuscript F-Pn of the Biobliotheque Nationale de France contains a number of Boquet's preludes. The 17 'Preludes marquant les cadences' and the 'Prelude sur tous les tons' explore the chromatic possibilities of the lute, with preludes in every key. Other lute pieces of Mlle Bocquet, such as Allemandes, Courantes, Sarabandes and Serenades are found in French, German and English manuscripts of the second half of the 17th century. All this music appears in Oeuvres des Bocquet (editors Monique Rollin and Andre Souris, Paris 1972). [info taken from Wikipedia and Annette Kruisbrink] The sheet repeats the last 4 lines of tab (measures 17-24) with added ornaments. The fingering follows the sheet. It may be easier to play using lower frets. Except in measure 10, mordents apply to the upper note of a chord or interval. Mordents are ornaments - in older music (especially for the lute and baroque guitar), it is up to the performer to decide when and how they should be used. The tempo of the MIDI file is 66 bpm (quarter notes). left hand fingering below the tab - 1 - index finger 2 - middle finger 3 - ring finger 4 - little finger === - note held, length of note arp. - arpeggiate - ripple upwards from the lowest note to the highest note M - lower mordent - a quick slip down to the note below and back up again p - (between the notes) pull-off W - upper mordent - a quick slip up to the note above and back down again CII - barre on the 2nd fret cV - part barre on the 5th fret CV - barre on the 5th fret cVII - part barre on the 10th fret ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ more classical guitar tablature available from http://www.classtab.org
