“There are seven pieces by Milan from El Maestro,
three by Narvaez from Los Seys Libros dei Delphin, and eight pieces by Mudarra
from Tres Libros de Musica En Cifra.
Two of the pieces by Milan are presented
in two versions here. Toda Mi Vida Hos Ame is the opener and its first version
largely consists of long notes in the guitar part, whilst the other moves around
more in smaller notes. The vocal part is identical in both. There are also two
versions of Perdida Tenyo La Color, a Villancico en Portuges, and differ in the
same manner as the first pair. For Milan's final three pieces, the guitar is
instructed to tune its third string to F sharp in line with the vihuela. The
pieces themselves are a further Villancico and two Sonetos en Ytaliano.
Narvaez's three items, one of which is to be played with an F sharp [open 3rd
string] are all Villancicos, whilst Mudarra's are two Canciones, two Sonetos and
four Villancicos.
The music from Spain from this period in history is very
pure in sound, with everything relying on beauty of tone.
For anyone
interested in this period in Spanish musical history, this is an essential
purchase.”
