Yes, nice arrangement and fun to listen to! I'm starting to wonder if this is the most dispersed Frottole of the 20th century. My group played it about 10 years ago and Ron, too, apparently? I remember it was handed out in the late '70s at an LSA seminar (along with Per dolor by M. Cara).

Dear Sean, Tony Rooley cetainly had a hand in popularising 'Ostinato vo seguire' - It's recorded on the Consort of Musicke LP 'The World of Early Music' (1978) and included in his book 'The Penguin book of early music' (1980).' That's where I first heard it, and it's been a favourite on mine ever

Thanks, Denys. Ray Nurse handed it out in either '79 or '80. I'll ask him this summer how he came across it. It was my first introduction to learning about voice-and-lute interplay. And you're right: it is a little finger-jumper! I wrote a little contrapunto to fill it out with a third

I have to reverse engineer a 'proper' bass line to Nina (canzonetta), long wrongly attributed to Pergolesi but actually by Legrenzi Ciampi (1719-?). All I have is the well-known Arie Antique version, but I am hpoing there is a continuo bass to the original. I know the Arie Antique have a new

Sean: I think 'Ostinato vo' seguire' was introduced by Anthony Rooley, to whom we owe so much, in his anthology of early music published by Penguin. We are performing that piece and also 'Per dolor me bagno il viso' (both by Bart Tromboncino, by the way) in a concert program Saturday, March

Funny that this piece seems to be well known. I never heard of it until the swiss lutenists on their regular trip to the lago maggiore found the year of spinancino's first print to be passing without recognisable resonance. So we decided to plan a 500 years of ... series of recitals as some
