BACK ISSUES OF LUTE NEWS

Lute News, the quarterly magazine of the Lute Society was founded in 1986 by Stephen Haynes, with an electronic colour supplement, The Lutezine added by Christopher Goodwin in 2012. The contents of the 136 issues to date run to over 6,000 pages of reading matter and music. Now you can buy back numbers to complete your collection. IMPORTANT NOTE: The early issues are much cheaper than the recent ones not because they are older, but because the contents are much slighter. Lute News began before the desktop publishing revolution, and the earliest issues are typically only 12 pages (3 sheets of A4 folded to A5) with perhaps 4 pages of tablature; it went to A4 format at issue 33, with verbatim transcripts of papers (rather than summaries) from issue 45; this is reflected in pricing.

SPECIAL OFFER: COMPLETE HOLDING FOR £275 (non-members £675!!)

ALL THE BACK ISSUES OF LUTE NEWS MAGAZINE IN PDF FORMAT


A complete holding of the 140 issues to date; articles and news about all aspects of the lute going back to 1986, for just £275, (or £675 for non-members so you'd be crazy not to join if you want this treasure trove of information!). These come in PDF format, with a searchable contents list.
Because the total file size is too big to send electronically, it will be posted on a USB memory stick, or as a single document with all the urls to download them.

(Note: libraries are required to sign an agreement that the contents may be posted to library or university intranet, but not public internet, please - as with most other journals we know of!)
Members Price £275

Non-members Price £675



Each copy is also available as a PDF sent by Email for the same price but without the added postage cost.

Please email the Secretary with your request and he will he will reply with a link for payment by PayPal.
