Very interesting. Thanks for posting the link. :-) One thing that puzzles me towards the end of the article: Is the "Englisch zitterlein" described by Pratorius the same as the "gittarn" Sir Peter Leycester refers to, or are they just similar? And how does Leycester's instrument relate to the early 16th C gittern?
