Again, you've caught me in mid-research, but I think the correct order
is coming. The odd thing about the Pesori books is their weird mixture
of movable type and engraving . . . makes for a book that is very
difficult to bind!

Further to this: in the Pesori many numbered digital pages are clearly
out of order (perhaps when last bound) - does anyone have the correct
order? Some sequences with just text can be readily identified but not
so easy are the sheets containing music.

I'm sure you're right Monica: many pieces may well need a bit of
'revision' to reach what Pesori was perhaps really trying to put across
in his Toccate.
Also interesting in the Pesori are the homilies, dedications, responses
and the like and also the list of subscribers - I haven't spotted any
other guitarists or even lutenists amongst them...
Regarding the date: I have c. 1648 for his Opera Seconda (Lo Scrigno
Armonico) so would c. 1645 be about right for this (presumably first)
work?

The problem with some of these books seems to be that their authors
were not
sufficently musically literate to notate their music coherantly
particularly
as regards rhythm and metre.
it's actually Pesori not Pesaro whilst we are at it isn't it.
