Full Description
Nicola MATTEIS
The False Consonances of Musick (1682)
Complete facsimile edition with an introduction by James Tyler.
This is one of the most important treatises of the seventeenth century. Invaluable to players of all plucked instruments, it should be of especial interest to guitarists for it contains Matteis's realisations of figured basses for the baroqe guitar and thereby points the way to a fundamental, if totally neglected, aspect of the guitarist's musical life, that of continuo playing.
