Ed,

Yes, I forgot the Valderrabano intabulations.  He also intabulated a movement 
from Morales's Missa de beata virgine. I should say from_one_of Marles's.  He 
also wrote two.  I've wondered if you couldn't pull a Paston and use some of 
the intaulations for an accompanied song. Those are some of the most beautiful 
melodies ever conceived, and I wonder what it would be like to use the three 
lower parts onlute and sing the top line.  (That's what Paston did with Byrd.)

I and others are waiting for the debut of The First Vihuela Quartet. (What was 
that grup that calledthemselves "The First <something or other>"?  Howard would 
know.<g>  Art.

  Excellent note, Art!  In addition to these lutenist/vihuelists, 
  Valderrabano as well did intabulations of the Missa beata virgine;  He did 
  2 different arrangements for 2 vihuelas.
