Does anyone have any dates for Fuenllana. I have just come across a
source which gives them as c.1500-1579. It seems unlikely to me that

Just in case you are not on the Ning site, here is a link to a fun
'duo' by Fuenllana, or Josquin really. It is intersting how someone
could just take two voices from a four-voice texture and make a solo
out of them - not something many arrangers do today.
Fuenllana composed and intabulated pieces for the 5c vihuela. How this
instrument differed from the 5c guitar with bourdons on the 4th and 5th is a
little bit of a mystery. His 6c vihuela seems to have been quite small,
judging by the stretches required of the left hand. The 5c tablature seems

I'm trying to restore my personal website after my computer died a few weeks
ago. Unfortunately I have been unable to find the Fuenllana pdf files which
were on the music in time website. Does anyone have them? Could you email
them to me?

Fantasia 8 from Book 4 - played on a vihuela in A, plus usual tab and
transcription. This is a very playble and beautiful piece.

This time it is one of his easiest fantasias, number six from book four. Not
exactly easy, but as easy as Fuenllana gets. A really nice piece. MP3 file
and French tab, plus basic transcription for guitarists.

I have now uploaded performances of the first two fantasias from Book 4.
Fuenllana describes these works as 'difficult' - he is not kidding! I found
them really hard to play well. They are more lively and shorter than the 3rd
fantasia of book 4 which I posted last week.
