Of course, like you, I doubt whether the Pope would have expected a strummed guitar in Palestrina's Messa Papae Marcelli. Indeed, is there even any evidence for the excessive strumming in some modern fashionable performances of South American sacred settings? Probably not as much

Agazzari was working in Rome and Siena, and probably the chitarra spagnuola was more widely known there around 1600. But Agazzari's 'Del sonare sopra il basso' is really about figured bass and counterpoint, and from how he describes the use of the 'ornamental' instruments it appears that the

Dear Martyn But before getting too bogged down, the earlier question was whether the chitarra spagnola might be included as a continuo instrument, even by Agazzari. You'll know 'Le stravaganze d'amore' of Corradi (Venice 1616). This is an early 17thcentury source from a Northern
