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 comie actor and dancer. Suggested tempo is brisk, about J = 144, GD It's important to release the third finger from the low C at this point to avoid an ugly clash with the upper CH . The change of hey 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. Suggested tempo is = 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. sd dot) YA yy ap OP IP os ad Pap oF OP os ® ® : id °F 2p as id ,JO@1d 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, gos 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 4 = 96. ‘Anonymousan 319) 3 of Jal of alo} > 3|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, (1 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) 43) 4) 0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 (umm 1700) tae 4 = —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 so Gagliarde Passamezzo anonym aus ,Phalése" 16 2 Gagliarden anonym ‘ aos Posie dddty tt7 3 Branles anonym I aus ,Phalese™ idd Jedd, ddd if8 9 Branles de Bourgogne anonym aus ,Phalése* todd ytd t . 4VIIL2 4 Allemanden I anonym aus ,PhaléseFolie d@’ Espagne anonym (sm 4700) |at22 CiaconaSuite anonym IIT Ouverture (Praha) t Allegro Hs par 7 iT air Adagio daid a aCourante GavotteBourrée i arais tats dB Trp ttre F r tua dtd yd tM A Ss Menuett that ad dd AF tidy A Ly a r RTP FP T u od bdo id a 5 ar t F 2 idl id ) 41 4 | Gavotte Vibr. adie6 Stiicke : anonym III Canarie (Praha) t t a th r Te rrr 4 4 +H I a >I Bourrée Bourrée MenuettMenuett4 Stiicke anonym IV Gavotte en Rondeau (Praha) BourréeMenuettOuverture anonym (Andante) (Schwerin) ob brig ddd dd de ; 7 Te PF FT Jy odd de Fore Tir F * Franonym Sarabande (Schwerin) 1 4 7 tyr * oF Double 7 S og.
