Viola da Gamba
I went to a house concert - on the programme was music for two viola da gambas played by Les Voix Humaines.
For the uninitiated, this may look like a cello but there are many differences. Like the better known violin family, viola da gambas come in different sizes. However, the shape is slightly different. All viola da gambas are played held on or between the legs (gamba - leg in Italian). They have frets which can be moved slightly to alter the tuning. They usually have 6 strings, though this is not always the case.. The one above has 6, the one below has 7 - an addition that was made to some French viols to add a lower note. Strings are made of gut, which require more frequent tuning as they are more prone to stretching and slipping than metal strings.
Cat gut violin strings
The cat was curled up and fast asleep in BK's violin case when I got there this evening. True to his usual form, by the time I had run around getting batteries and checking the camera, he had woken up, but he must be getting slow as I would normally have gotten just a picture of a violin case and the tip of a tail.
