THE LUTE SOCIETY

Membership

Members receive: a quarterly magazine, Lute News, which includes a tablature supplement, usually 36 pages of music, specially chosen and edited by our team of editors; an annual journal, The Lute; discounts on our ever-growing list of music publications, booklets and plans; and details of our meetings, concerts, and playing days and weekends.

You don't have to live in the United Kingdom to benefit from being a member - around half of our members live outside the UK, and subscribe because they enjoy publications.

We much prefer to receive payment in sterling. But if you have to pay in dollars or euros, you can find out the equivalent price of the subscription in your own currency by pretending to use the appropriate PayPal button. Follow through the system until the final page where PayPal provide a drop-down menu of currencies. If you select your currency, the equivalent cost at the prevailing exchange rate will be displayed. Quit the system and use that figure for your payment.
