The Oldest Surviving Music for the Guitar
transcribed and edited by Eric Waters
In 1546, forty-four years after the final voyage of Christopher Columbus
and while the Spanish Conquistadors swept through the Americas, Alonso
Mudarra published his Tres libros de musica (Three Books of Music).
These books, devoted primarily to music for the vihuela, voice and harp
also contain six pieces that are described by The New Harvard Dictionary
of Music as ""the earliest printed music"" for the guitar. In this
case- that would be the 4-course Renaissance guitar.
In Guitar
Music from Tres libros de musica, George Washington University guitar
instructor Eric Waters has transcribed and edited these six selections
from the original 16th century tablature. Each piece is presented both
in standard musical notation and in a modern adaptation of the original
tablature (with mensural rhythms printed above). Tablature and music are
printed separately to eliminate page turns.
The companion
online audio for this book was recorded on a 1995 Jose Ramirez 1-A
traditional concert guitar (650 mm string length), with a capo at the
third fret to better approximate the range of the Renaissance guitar and
facilitate use of the original fingering. While the Renaissance guitar
was tuned proportionately the same as the first four strings of the
modern guitar (D-G-B-E low to high), the 1st piece in the book is tuned
like a 4-string version of dropped-D tuning (C-G-B-E). These
arrangements judiciously avoid the use of the 5th and 6th strings of the
modern guitar to better emulate the original Renaissance model."
