Thanks kindly, everyone! It's what I suspected, but the comparative

Hi Thomas,
Besard's "nova testudo" is a 10 course lute in G with the 2 top strings down
an octave, like a theorbo, only a theorbo woudl rather be in A and would have

de Rossi in 1604, when their daughter Dorothea was born. The date 1579 is more
appropriated for his birth year, because in thi
Hi Monica,
His tombstone in S. Biagio, Montecitorio in Roma, bears the inscription :
"Johannes Hieronymus Kapsberger Germanus etatis sue annorum septuagesimo primo"
