Subject: [VIHUELA] Arus Baroque guitar manuscript
Thomas Schmitt has uploaded a scan of a Baroque guitar manuscript to
his Ning page.

The manuscript doesn't seem to be listed in Tyler's "The Guitar and
its Music" (though I may have missed it).

Here is Mr Schmitt's comments:
As a welcome gift I attach a baroque guitar tablature from the Arús
library in Barcelona. Although the title refers to a Viguela, the
instrument is unequivocally a five-course guitar.
I haven't analyzed the manuscript, but it seems to be from the second
half of the 18th century. Enjoy the music...
