Spagnoletta This piece, taken from an Italian manuscript source by the nineteenth-century musi- cologist Oscar Chilesotti, is an example of the popular tune Espafioleta, or “Little Spanish Tune.” An orchestrated version of the tune may be heard in Joachin Rodrigo’s Fantasia para un gentilhombre for guitar and orchestra. The tempo should be moderate, about 4 = 116, but with a lilt and no heaviness. 1D A slight stress on the first beat here till help to establish the changed pattern of phrase. ‘Anonymous tr. Wilson’s Wilde This piece is from the Dowland lute book. Although easy to play, it is a very effective composition because of the amount of variety in a simple framework. Each of three themes is followed by an ornamented repeat; if the themes are treated with a sustained quality, the repeats may be given an interesting contrast by being played with a brisk attack. Suggested tempo is d= 152. ad F. _The Parlement From the Dowland manuscript, this piece seems to be based on Kemp's Jig, a popular tune of the time associated with Will Kemp, the famous English comic actor and dancer. Suggested tempo is brisk, about J = 144, © Its important to release the third finger from the low C at this point to avoid an ugly clash with the upper C# . The change of key is somewhat sudden, but it is helped by stressing the C# . 6thtoD. ‘Anonymous Volt This very popular piece was untitled in the Dowland manuscript but appears elsewhere under the title of Volt or La volta, It appears frequently in Italian lute sources and was probably originally Italian. Si xgested tempo is d= 116. The only technical problem lies in the first two measures, where the change from the second to fifth position should be made evenly and without hurry. Fantasia This piece (originally untitled) was transcribed by Oscar Chilesotti from a Sixteenth- century manuscript lute book. It is chosen here as a straightforward example of a com- mon style of piece which was purely instrumental and unrelated to dance forms. The aim of the player is to bring out the contrapuntal (multiline) quality of the piece by carefully sustaining tied and held notes for their full value. It is important to recognize the original tune as it reoccurs in other voices. The “Fantasia” seems to sound well at a stately d = 76. ad doy Wa ap OP TP ow ad 1 ap oP OP os @ ® : id op 2p 2 id ,J@id ad The Cobbler anonymous ay gy See I td dil de , 5 2 | rr por re Te 4 Dry eogg 2 wyy VIS y ya, shy 2 P 7 - G is Go From My Window This song is from the Dowland manuscript. Like"The Cobbler,” it was a popular folk song. In Francis Beaumont’s Knight of the Burning Pestle, old Merrythought sings: Go from my window, love, go; Go frum my window, my dear; The wind and the rain Will drive you back again, ‘You cannot be lodged here. Chappell’s book, mentioned in the note on p. 52, gives further information about this song on p. 140. Technically the piece should not present too much difficulty provided that care is taken to notice where the fingering indicates a change from first to second position or the reverse. ‘There is considerable variety in the variations, and the rhythmic differences should be emphasized for contrast. Suggested tempo is J = 96. ‘Anonymous As I Went To Walsingham Walsingham was a popular folk song arranged by almost all the Elizabethan composers. ‘The song, from the Cambridge lute book (D.D.2.11), relates to the traditional pilgrimage “to the Church of Our Lady at Walsingham, Norfolk, which was a shrine fonous foe miracles, Since the priory there was dissolved in 1538, the tune is clearly a very old one. In Popular Music of the Olden Time William Chappell gives the following words-— AsIwent to Walsingham, To the shrine with speed, Met I with a jolly palmer Ina pilgrim’s weed. A palmer was a monk who went from shrine to shrine. Suggested tempo is J = 80. Although some of the chord changes need practice, the leisurely tempo should make this piece not too difficult technically. © The high B can be held over on the lute, but it is unfortunately not possible to do so on the guitar.'A crescendo up to this point is effective. Anonymous wa q Toad Minuet In E This minuet from the lute book mentioned in the note on p. 18, was chosen for its Pleasing balance of the melodic and broken styles of composition. The lyrical opening ‘suggests a moderate tempo, about J = 96. OD This sequence of chords should be practiced separately to achieve clarity in each of the three voices. ©) This measure and the two which follow are slightly more difficult on the guitar than on the lute. The changes of position should be practiced until they are smooth and unhurried. @ Note the typical repeat in echo of these two measures. ‘Anonymous (18th Century) => of 4] 4) 3) 4] 0 z gis 36 PARTIE Praéludium anonym ARIOSO Cantabile AUP Le wi lie JardiBime -12- Allemande mes ; _ " —tpsddo dd add do St — GPF F - _ 2 Tn = dye tT) fy pd DU dL dy ae : rr Menuett anonym ' um 1700) en ea = 4 2 Fantasien anonym aus ,Phalése* T ad t tab) ted dt 5 Pavane des bouffons t t anonym aus ,Phalése* a0 os S t os Gagliarde td.

His large collection of his own and other composers’ music was published in Cologne in 1603. The branle was a lively country dance, often characterized by an unchanging or “drone” bass. Like the preceding piece, this dance depends for its effectiveness on a fast tempo, preferably about d= 144. LD) The third finger is important here to release the second finger for the E bass.

It was twice mentioned in Shakespeare's Merry Wives of Windsor, and first appeared in the stationer’s register of 1580 when Richard Jones had licensed to him “A new Northern Dittye of the Lady Greene Sleeves.” There is, however, evi- dence that the tune is of much earlier origin, perhaps in Henry VIII’s time, this regis~ tration and the many that followed it being evidence of a new wave of popularity in the late sixteenth-century. In the following century it was adopted during the revolution by the cavaliers, who wrote many political songs to this tune, and in 1728 appeared again as one of the me- lodies selected for the Beggar’s Opera. One of the earliest instrumental settings occurs in William Ballet's manuscript lute book (late sixteenth-century), and a transcription of this is included in Brian Jeffery’s Elizabethan Popular Music, (Oxford University Press, 1966). The same author has transcribed a duet version from the Dowland lute book in his Elizabethan Duets (Schott and Co, Ltd., 1970). Cutting’s version lies very well on the guitar and is a pleasure to play. The manuscript of this is now in the British Museum (Add. 31392). . Suggested tempo is a lilting )= 138. © This is a common chord on the lute which makes some demand on the left hand, but it is possible with practice. © Note the fourth finger, which makes a necessary change of position for the quick move to the D chord. The first finger is necessary if the B is to sustain. It-is an awkward jump from the previous chord, which may be played staccato 'to allow for this, Francis Cutting Almain The catchy tune and repeate Cutting’s more popular pieces. This versis script Add. 31392. Suggested tempo is alively d= 132. After the initial A the first finger forms a three-string half bar without lifting of. D There is a temptation to use the first finger, but I think the G# sounds better held for the extra half beat. The E in the original was an octave higher. D The original had an F¥ above the Di; this is possible but awkward. (2) Lift the end of the bar to sound the A while holding the Fi. .d versions of this allemande indicate that it was one of ion is based on the British Museum manu- Francis Cutting Toy This piece is from the very large manuscript collection known as D‘D.2.11 in the Cam- bridge University Library, dating probably from the last decade of the Sixteenth-cen- tury. Little is known about Francis Cutting except the popularity and high caliber of, his music. In musical terms a toy was, logically enough, something to play with and enjoy, in much the same sense that “recreation” was a title given to later pieces. ‘Suggested tempo is J = 144.

Dowland’s galliard for his onetime patron Christian IV of Denmark is taken front the book Lachrimae or Seven Tears. ‘The compositions in it were for viols and lute, the lute parts being somewhat simpler than the extended solo arrangements, I suggest a vigorous, imperial approach at a tempo of about o = 108, @ The right-hand thumb plays both the low A and E.

John Dowland Queen Elizabeth’s Galliard A fitting companion to the previous piece is Dowland’s tribute to his own queen. This piece appears in the Variety of Lute Lessons, published by Dowland’s son, Robert, Of majestic structure, it evokes fanfares and trumpet calls, and the change to 9/8 time is particularly effective Suggested tempo is d= 88. © This is an unusual arrangement for the right hand, but it is not particularly difficult when it is clear in the mind, The ligados here and elsewhere in the piece are editorial and may be omitted. However, in this passage they seem to emphasize the relationship ta the first theme. GD A staccato approach to the melody followed by a stress on the high B helps to establish the new rhythm.

It is a litde harder to play on the guitar than on the lute, and some players may wish to try it with the third string down to F# . Suggested tempo is = 72. © Here is the principal trouble spot. The first finger has to move as smoothly as possible from the C# to the low B. The secret isto do it deliberately without trying to rush it I This is a curious voicing of this chord; but it is a very common one in lute music and therefore is a characteristic sound. GF Here is another practice spot; remember to keep the first finger on the previous FA. John Dowland Vivace — There is a pleasant freshness to this piece if it is played at a lively tempo (4 = ,126). It is in the French broken style, depending for interest on typical lute arpeggiation and scales in contrast to the melodic Italian style (for example, the Aria on page 39). Itis technically straightforward except for the two passages noted below. 1) The change to the third position is necessary for the execution of the scale, This, and the location of the fourth finger on the second string in the following measure, need care and practice, . It is important to note the fingering of this scale on the fourth and fifth strings. The F# | and E on the fifth string involve a further change of position, but this prepares the hand ‘for an easy movement to the C# which follows. The forte and piano marks should be: observed so as to give the echo effect so typical of the period.

Fantasia An interesting example of music for the four-string guitar, this piece was published in 1554 in Fuenllana’s Orphenica lyra. Although blind, the composer was one of the most celebrated players of his time and held a position as musician to the Marquesa de Tarifa. ‘The'Fantasia”shows a more imaginative use of the limited four strings than other pub- lished works for guitar during this period. The principal challenge lies in sustaining each voice for its true value. ; Suggested tempo is d = 132. (At this point the first finger should bar the C and the first string F so that the C can be sustained. . Miguel de Fuenllana ado 1 wm... Tanz This lighthearted dance is taken from Testudo Gallo-Germanico. The word Testudo means lute, or more literally “tortoise shell,” from the myth that the first lute was the result of a tortoise decaying. Its entrails were stretched across the shell, and when plucked they had a musical sound. This unlikely story is widely quoted in early treatises. AAs the bass pattern is the same throughout, it may be practiced by itself before adding the melody. All three bass notes should be played with the thumb, the melody with alternating free strokes. : Suggested tempo is a brisk d = 176, 6thtoD I, Caghe bclboRe ef bi once rece. >. cL’ oro p ee 7 : iled +r £\ oA = Ab es eS .

It makes a pleasant contrast with Holborne’s “Galliard,”if they are per formed as a pair. The harmonic structure is quite full, which entails some practice to negotiate the chord changes smoothly, but it should be possible to achieve a tempo of about / = 104. Anthony Holbome Galliard This piece is from the Cambridge University manuscript lute book D.D. 5.78. Players interested in discovering more of Holborne’s music should see The Complete Worke of Anthony Holborne, edited by Maszkata Kanazana (Harvard University Press, 1967). This work contains tablature and piano transcription, Although many galliards reflect their dance origin and sound well with a brisk strict rhythm, this piece is one of those that seem more lyrical and therefore effective if played with a sustained melodic quality. The suggested tempo is J = 66. (D The second finger on the low F# isa stretch, but seems preferable to jumping the third Singer over the B. 6th oD Anthony Holborne Alman ‘This is a lively contrast to the preceding piece. The word Alman is the same as Alle- mande, or German (dance). ‘The manuscripts contain much solo music of both Robert Johnson (who also wrote many songs) and of,his father, John. Robért’s music is characteristically simpler and more melodic than the sophisticated compositions of his father. ‘Suggested tempo is J = 108. @ It is important to place the full bar down for the F#t , which takes the difficulty out of the fast change. a Johnson “HV ae 598 ead dy 2 oF oF
