Robert Barto (lute)About
Hagen’s known works are in a single large manuscript, found today in the City Library of Augsburg. In his use of the lute, Hagen reflects the influence of the virtuosic style of Falckenhagen and Durant. Brilliant arpeggio work, extremely fast plucked and slurred scales over several octaves, double trills and use of the highest frets are all commonplace.
Added to this, the combination of tuneful melodies and virtuosic flair make Hagen a perfect representative of the gallant style which was prevalent in mid-18th century Germany. His works are the last substantial contribution to the lute repertoire and he can truly be called the last great lute virtuoso.
