This raises an interesting point--why do we so often refer to certain
Renaissance artists (and others I'm sure) by their forenames? After all,
who ever heard of Buonarroti's David? Sure, you read about the da Vinci
Code, but his artworks
and understand
the sound). So I'll not be Ian Dhu, nor Spud, I'll just be

Dear Francesco,
I am very
are going to be unhappy. I would wager most in the Lute
community would instantly understand that Francesco is most
surely Francesco Canova Da Milano Da Parigi.
The point is that Francesco da Milano was never called just Francesco at
his times as it was for, say, Michelangelo. Perhaps it

Oddly enough Francesco and Michelangelo were both awarded the
title Il Divino, do you think they were called that? I am
not sure how you know what FDM was called in his time. If
Michelangelo was known as Michelangelo why was it not
possible for FDM to be known as Francesco understanding
Not a good idea. Canova is firmly associated with a baroque scolptor of this
name.

I suppose strictly speaking we should call him Canova. I guess we

be more thrilling than to hear Francesco improvise a
fantasia, or to hear Dowland sing one of his own lute songs?
Wow, I guess people would be really thrilled to hear me improvising a
