Dear Antonio,

I have been searching my house high and low for my photocopy of Barberiis' _Libro Decimo_. It must be here 
somewhere, but I just can't find it. However, help is at hand at Sarge Gerbode's lute site. If you search 
there under "facsimiles", you will find a copy of Barberiis' book: 
http://www.gerbode.net/facsimiles/Barberiis_intabolatura_di_lauto_v10_1549/hh1v.png . The type face for the 
guitar music looks to me the same as for the lute music. It is interesting that the top line is marked 
"canto", presumably to clarify that this line represents the first course (highest in pitch), 
unlike all the lute music earlier in the book. By the way, although each of the guitar pieces has the title 
"Fantasia", they are really more modest in character. I would be very interested to know what the 
music is.

There is a facsimile copy of Salinas' book at the IMSLP site. Please could you 
tell me which page he gives the tenor of Conde Claros. (I find the Latin heavy 
going.) Where possible I would like to link Spanish romances such as Conde 
Claros to simple melodies, to be able to create a more folky performance 
(unaccompanied, or with simple chords strummed on the guitar) than the 
sophisticated arrangements for voice and vihuela which survive in the vihuela 
books.

Best wishes,

Stewart.
