Subj: [VIHUELA] Donald Gills arrangements for 4-course guitaRe: Corrente by Foscarini Ages ago, when the Lute Society published sheets of music because lute music was not easily available, Donald Gill made some arrangements for 4-course guitar from 5-course music of the 17th century. Here

[VIHUELA] Re: Vihuela technique: dos dedos and dedillo

I don't recall that any of the original sources actually go into sufficient detail for us to be certain what players did in the 16th century. Therein lies the problem. Players being human beings they probably did what they found worked for them - every player would have done something

[VIHUELA] Manuscripts XL b.209 and XL b.211

These two manuscripts of baroque guitar music XL b 209 /XL b 211 are in the Narodni Muzeum in Prague I believe. I have a not very legible print out of both of them but the pages are unnumbered and it is not clear which manuscript is which or even whether the pages are in the right order. The

Updating it yet again - I keep getting interrupted - but the tuning chart seems to indicate that the 5th course is tuned in unison with the third course stopped at the 2nd fret which would make it re-entrant. Monica Original Message From: mjlh...@tiscali.co.uk Date: 04/01/2018 9:51

[VIHUELA] Re: Moravsky Manuscript

I wasn't able to access the facsimile of this manuscript so can't really comment in details. However I think it is a bit doubtful whether Losy actually composed any music specifically for the guitar; what survives in manuscript may be arrangements of lute pieces. It is also unlikely that he
