The majority of people cannot differentiate between a good singer

strive to make our best as musicians and try to render the music as
good as we can.

Dear Ariel and all,

Dear Ariel,
I think that you starting up from a wrong concept. Playing continuo
is not about learning positions for chords but reading a bass and
adding the right harmonies to it as a result of counterpoint and
correct voice leading. If you think in "chords positions" like jazz
players do,
It could well be that those recorded versions were taken and
intabulated from a vocal polyphonic setting by Tromboncino. I have
looked in Jeppesen's book for concordances but I can not find the
piece. Do any of you know of any polyphonic version of it?
Thanks again,
Alfonso

Dear Craig,
The re-entrant tuning on the theorbo has its origins on the physical
nature of gut strings. The long string lengths of this instrument
makes impossible to get gut thin enough to have the 2nd and 1st
strings at "normal" pitch. This apparent drawback, used with
