Italian Guitar Music of the Seventeenth Century

Italian Guitar Music of the Seventeenth Century (Eastman Studies in Music) by Lex Eisenhardt
English | 2015 | ISBN: 1580465331 | 268 pages | PDF | 7,4 MB

In the seventeenth century, like today, the guitar was often used for chord strumming (""battuto"" in Italian) in songs and popular dance genres, such as the ciaccona or sarabanda. In the golden age of the baroque guitar, Italy gave rise to a unique solo repertoire, in which chord strumming and lute-like plucked (""pizzicato"") styles were mixed. Italian Guitar Music of the Seventeenth Century: Battuto and Pizzicato explores this little-known repertoire, providing a historical background and examining particular performance issues. The book is accompanied by audio examples on a companion website.
