A second for Molinaro, but what about Dowland, Byrd and Holborne, especially now that Holborne is the ONLY renaissance composer to make it to interstellar space!

The ones I love & and haven't been named yet are Simone Molinaro and his uncle Giovanni Battista dalla Gostena. Fantasias of Terzi'really aren't all that daunting if you approach them calmly, without fear, and go slowly at first. Same can be said in regard to Albert de Rippe. And let's not forget Giacomo Gorzanis. Some repetitiveness and a little sloppy here and there, but when he rocks he rocks. And, painful or not, Mel Newsidler is well worth the effort. Even if one can't get his most challenging ball-breakers up to speed, it will improve your range & grasp of fingering to work his stuff seriously. And one of our most prolific composers, the man (or woman) of a thousand faces and more than human lifespan- Anonymous!

There's Vindella's all Acadelt book (1546), the many variations of "Quand'io pens'al martir" and even the chansons for voice and renaissance guitar (A. LeRoy, Cinqiesme Livre). And Crecquillon, non Papa, Pathie, deRore, Lasso and â¦. .. who am I kidding? I enjoy most all the vocal pieces set for lute. Ok, all the ones I can play, anyway. Phalese ('63, '68) and Paladin sometimes stay on the stand for months. Sean ps, Tristan, there's a nice Pathie set by the mysterious B.M. in Siena.

So far, I love Francesco da Milano and most anonymous pieces from the Siena Ms., they never get tiresome and lie gently on the hands. Also Hans Neusiedler and Luis Milan. Not in this category: Albert de Rippe. Amazing music, but honestly, did this guy have six fingers on each hand?? What are your favourites? Is there any obscure repertoire to discover?
