Suggestions for other sites ?

    Before submitting a web site or a page, you must know that I am only looking for those dedicated to SL Weiss, other lute composers (JS Bach doesn’t belong to this category unless you find a site or page entirely devoted to his lute work), to the lute in general and to search engines and data bases entirely devoted to music.

    I will make the selection myself. I know it is a subjective choice, but I have to do it. My choice will rely on the quality and the pertinence of the site, not on its presentation and ergonomy, even if I allow myself to mention what I feel is inadequate.

    If you have a site to suggest, please indicate by  e-mail :

          • Its name
          • Its url
          • your name (if you want it to appear)
          • A brief description
    I will pay a visit to the site and will get back to you to let you know if I intend to include it or not. In the latter case, I will let you know why I haven’t selected it.
