[VIHUELA] Re: Cifras recording

[Monica Hall]

I suppose I will have to wait patiently for a copy to wing its way here from 
Chile.

But it would be interesting to know which pieces they play on it.

What I am really anxious to know is whether the Correnta in C minor on f.51v 
of the ms. is by Corbetta.  The Gallot ms. includes a Courante in that key 
which is probably by Corbetta but I haven't found another concordance for it 
yet.  I don't suppose Vera has seen this.

I thought from the article in Early Music that Vera was preparing a 
facsimile edition of the ms.

It's excellent. I have listened to it a few times. I find the balance
between the two instruments less than ideal, and the arranging that
the performers have done is quite tasteful compared to some of the
blond-fairytale recordings of Spanish guitar music of recent years.
I'm writing a formal review of it at the moment.
Of course, the best thing is that it brings to life this newly-found
music in a vivid and convincing way.

John
