My name is Andreas Schlegel. I live in Switzerland (Menziken - between
Aarau and Luzern); my age is 37, I'm a musician (guitar-teacher and
lutenist). Perhaps you know my edition "The Lute Corner" (I published
f.ex. the Sonatas for Lute and obligate violin/flute composed by
Friedrich Wilhelm Rust around 1790). I'm married with a very good wife;
we have two children (15 and 10) and have mooved last year to a house in
which I have built in a recording studio - I'm working specially with
plucked instruments.
I play the lute since 1980. Because I had troubles with Eugen Dombois
during my studies at the Schola Cantorum Basiliensis I obtained my paper
with Jrgen Hbscher - a very good musician. Of course I worked thorough
bass at the SCB with Hoppy Smith - and he is a very important
personality for me.
I was in this generation of musicians (in the same time in Basel as
Beatrice Pornon and Rolf Lislevand, Bob Barto, Karl-Ernst Schrder and
so on) who joined the musicological research and the playing of the
instrument. So I heard for some years musicology by Prof.Wulf Arlt and
wrote several papers concerning the lute music of the 17th century and
the Rust-riddle.
During the 90ties I worked as director of a music school and in other
functions in the political environs of music education - and my lutes
were very, very alone... Now I hope to make more music (and less
musicology, because during the musicological work the lutes can't be
played).

Some questions?
