Always shaking my head, rolling my eyes, and counting all those upper
pegbox pegs when the pics or the subject of the 19 course chromatic
theorbo comes up. (Even the chromatic harmonica is a rare handful
compared to the regular diatonic ones, but seems to be a more manageable
& widespread instrument.)
How many thumbs did Kapsberger have going up his right wrist?

Dear Collective Wisdom,
Is there any music apart from that in Kapsberger's Libro Quarto which calls for
a theorbo of more than 14 courses?
Thanks for your help,
Martin
