Beskrivning
The first complete anthology of lute music contained within Thomas Mace’s historic treatise Musick’s Monument (1676), transcribed and edited for classical guitar by Andrew Shepard-Smith.An exquisite and intriguing collection of early English Baroque lute music containing twelve preludes, eight complete lute suites, transcription notes, and a detailed table of ornaments (as outlined in Musick’s Monument). Originally written as a pedagogical text for lute and theorbo, Mace’s lute music contains wonderful insights into the performance practice of the time.A very valuable addition both the performance repertoire and to the guitar reference literature.Staff notation: moderate to advanced.
