Dear David,
I would add that Kapsberger's Toccata Arpeggiata appears in Nigel
North's _Continuo Playing on the Lute, Archlute and Theorbo_
(London: Faber Music Ltd, 1987), page 167, preceded by a discussion
of how to play the piece.
Best wishes,
Stewart McCoy.

Can anyone direct me to available chitarrone tabulatures for

Paul O'Dette?
By the way, I've been a subscriber to this list for about three
years, although mostly as a passive reader. While I dread the
periodic flame wars, I find them easy to ignore. I must say
that my
occasional requests for information and advice have always been
answered with the utmost courtesy and caring. You've been very
helpful to me. Thanks much.
I especially enjoy reading Howard Posner's comments whenever
they appear.
Nothing particularly enjoyable about this one, I'm afraid:
Both pieces are in his Libro Primo d'Intavolatura di Chitarrone
(1604) on
pages 7 and 20. There is a 1982 S.P.E.S. facsimile of that and
two other
Kapsberger books; no. 46 in the series.
