Perhaps. Arthur Ness renders it "poverin" in his online table of contents of Marco's works. When I put Paul O'Dette's Marco CD in my computer, that title comes up "Pioverin" on the index, but on the CD sleeve, it's "ioverin" which must be a typo. I got a private email saying that in one modern dialect, "pioverin" is something like a rain gutter. I cruised through the Bayerische Staatsbibliothek Mus. Ms. 266, but I couldn't make out most of the titles, which means even if I found the word, I probably wouldn't have any better idea about what it says. > 8 September 2010 06:38, howard posner <howardpos...@ca.rr.com> wrote: > "Small rain"? > "Drizzle"? > > > > To get on or off this list see list information at > http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html > > > > -- > Sam Chapman > Oetlingerstrasse 65 > 4057 Basel > (0041) 79 530 39 91 --
