   There are more of such in Donald's recent kind donation to the Lute
   Soc. He was v keen on transcribing stuff for small guitars and
   mandores. Jil Segerman has just completed an inventory

   Subject: [VIHUELA] Donald Gill's arrangements for 4-course guitaRe:
   Corrente by Foscarini
   Ages ago, when the Lute Society published sheets of music because lute
   music was not easily available, Donald Gill made some arrangements for
   4-course guitar from 5-course music of the 17th century.
   Here is a little Corrente. As it is from a Foscarini tab, it's not just
   an arrangement but a(n)  hermeneutic reconstruction!

Interesting - it doesn't sound like Foscarini to me and it cannot be
from his 1629 book as the music in this is entirely in alfabeto.
Can you let me have a copy of it!...

I'll send you a scan.  These Lute Society sheets are possibly from the 
1970s. Donald produced two sheets of 4-course guitar arrangements. One 
was devoted to Calvi pieces and the other to Granata and Foscarini.
There are four Foscarini pieces, the familiar Pavaniglia con parti 
variate and Sarabande Francese and two correntes which I don't remember 
seeing and I haven't searched for them.


This particular Corrente does sound very Foscarini-eeny to me, or at 
least similar to other realisations of Foscarini's contentious tab. As 
ever the actual melodic line and phrasing is blurry but it has sort of 
signature melancholy - or perhaps he just used more sevenths than others.
