Renaissance Lute Repertoire-Guitar Tablature Edition can be viewed as either a supplement to the popular Introduction to the Lute: for Lute and Guitar Players
or as a standalone edition of 16th-century lute tablatures reset in
guitar tab. Play from beautifully-typeset scores, music by John Dowland,
Francesco da Milano, Vicenzo Galilei (father of the famous astronomer),
and many others, including vihuela composers, Narváez and Milán.
Together, this collection provides in guitar tab a beautiful and
extensive overview of music for the Renaissance lute.
TUNING: To get Renaissance lute tuning on a guitar, all
you need to do is tune the 3rd string, G, down one semitone to F♯.
That’s it. Then just read the tab as normal.
This edition is in guitar tablature. There is a separate edition in lute tablature, Renaissance Lute Repertoire-Lute Tablature Edition.
