Dear Zak, Thankfully this is not about tuning.
The Libro d’intavolatura is indeed fascinating and deserves greater interest. I have a question about your word “circulated”. I was under the impression that VG prepared the ms. for publication and it never proceeded further. Since it remained in his possession he added to it later. In Orlando Cristoforetti’s introduction there is no information on the fate of the manuscript between the addition of his final pieces and its present location. He does note that there are two pieces added in a different hand which may indicate another or later owner. Are there pieces that are found in other sources or are there other indications of circulation?
