The relationship of this book to other Pesaro tablatures is complex; I
hope to publish a web page with information on them soon. I visited
Rochester in November 2013 and moved these two tablatures and a few
other things up in the queue; it took them awhile but they came up in
January.
As for quality of music, well, it's Pesaro. I keep waiting for him to
find his voice and be more than historically interesting, but in vain .
. . But I wouldn't say it is unplayable, on the whole, just "clunky" (to
use a non-musicological term).

Very interesting.
The second one has lots of 'mixed tab' too. I don't know about the
alfabeto pieces but the mixed tab pieces look like another publication
by Pesaro: on the face of it, utterly unplayable gibberish. Yet nicely
printed with drawings etc. Very strange in that it's hard to see what
players of the time could have done with it.
