Renaissance Guitar Music

Renaissance Guitar

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 GIMP, Imagemagick, and command line pdf manipulation tools mostly from the 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 IMSLP, but until then, they are here.

: 16th Century guitar solos and chansons - Jocelyn Nelson & Amy Bartram

This is a truly lovely album. It was released on CD Baby. The mp3's can still be purchased on Amazon Music. All but the last track are from the above books. This is the album that convinced me learn this instrument and it's music.
