Paul Gilbert

While I was writing the songs for 'Fuzz Universe,' I was immersing myself in Bulgarian Female Choir music, Baroque lute and violin pieces, Johnny Cash songs about trains, cows, mules, and mining coal, the Bee Gees, and Ronnie James Dio.

American Musician

Julian Bream

My own style on the guitar grew out of my experience with the lute. I suppose some people might say I play each like the other. And of course I know a lot of guitar fans who wish I would stop playing the lute and vice versa.

British Musician

Yasmine Hamdan

It's complicated for my music to be accepted, even in Lebanon and the Arabic world - I sing in Arabic, but there's no lute, no classical instruments. Maybe with the Internet opening things up, things will change.

Lebanese Musician

Cecilia Bartoli

When you are accompanied by the instrument - on an instrument like the lute-the lute and voice - you have this sound, and you feel how the music can be so touching and yet so simple.

Italian Musician

Robert Rinder

I was in the National Youth Theatre, too, but there was no dancing there. I was doing plays like 'Julius Caesar' and playing the lute very badly.

English Judge

Joe Satriani

I personally am into the minstrel technique - if I hear someone playing a lute or playing a crumhorn, it just moves me. I don't know why.

When I feel like improvising, I always improvise on the guitar, never on the lute. It's as natural to me as breathing.

David Russell

I don't try to make the guitar sound like the harpsichord or lute. That makes you end up being like a bad copy.

Scottish Musician

I like to play the lute full-bloodedly, with passion, as well as with delicacy and, I hope, refinement.

Rhiannon Giddens

Anybody who thinks the lute just came out of a vacuum doesn't know the history.

Historical Instrument

While similar to a guitar, a lute has a deeper, round back and a distinct sound that’s less common today.

Not a Guitar

You play a lute using your fingers, not with a pick like some other stringed instruments.
