 ===== Cleaned up copies =====
-The following files were produced from scans of microfilm copies of the texts taken at the UC Berkeley Music Library in late 2019 and early 2020.  Each scan was rotated, had it's contrast adjusted, and where needed had some clean up done for removal of artifacts from the microfilm or capture process. The images were then converted to pdfs and put back together.  All work was done using [[https://www.gimp.org/|GIMP]], [[https://imagemagick.org/|Imagemagick]], and command line pdf manipulation tools mostly from the [[https://pypi.org/project/poppler-utils/|poppler-utils]] package. All work was done on a Linux laptop rigged for working supine. Eventually I hope to get all these files up to [[https://imslp.org/ |IMSLP]], but until then, they are here.

-==== Ma Guiterre je te chante : 16th Century guitar solos and chansons - Jocelyn Nelson & Amy Bartram  ====
+===== A good introduction to reading French tablature =====
-This is a truly lovely album. It was released on CD Baby and the mp3's can still be purchased on Amazon Music.  All but the last track are from the above books.
+Notation for the Guitar, Lute and Vihuela - Johann von Solothurn [[https://share.google/3ef2pwQpTXnJiMGMd]]
+I exchanged some email with Johann when I was getting started with renaissance guitar. His basic introduction will help you start playing from the same booklets our Renaissance antecedents played from.
+===== A good source for music =====
+I have never met Duarte, but they have a nice Ren Guitar blog. They are working on creating transcriptions of all known music written for the 4 course guitar. They have downloadable copies of originals, as well as transcriptions into French tab, Italian tab, modern staff, and musescore format.  [[https://duarteguitarra.music.blog/original-manuscripts/]]. I am using the Mudarra transcriptions from Duarte's site.
