The edition with facsimile seems to be associated with the Centro culturale Fernando Sor in Rome. That foundation sponsors a buitar competition. (See their web site.) The president of the foundation Giuliano Balestra is the editor of the Gorzanis book. He also has published editions with Berben and Ricordi.
I think the question is moot, since Alfonso has obtained a copy. ==ajn ----- Original Message ----- From: "Stewart McCoy" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Lute Net" <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, March 31, 2007 7:26 AM Subject: [LUTE] Sources for Voice and Lute > Dear Alfonso, > > Please let us know if you find out more about a > facsimile or modern > edition of the Gorzanis song collection.
