- Title:
-
Collection of compositions, presumed to be by Giovanni Casalotti.
- Scope & Content:
-
Collection of songs, with an accompaniment for Spanish guitar, apparently by Giovanni Casalotti. It includes the following for 2 voices:— 1. 'Quando miro il uago uolto.' f. 15. 2. 'La mia Clori vezzosa.' f. 39. 3. 'Ay, como las esperanzas.' f. 50b. 4. 'Ecco la Primauera.' f. 89b.
passim. 'Villanelle di più sorte con l' Intauolatura per sonare et cantare su la Chitarra alla Spagnola — Di Giovanni Casalotti,' who is presumably the composer, as well as the owner of the arms on f. 1 and on the cover. The tablature consists merely of letters without lines written above the first verses of the songs, the initial words of which are given in Index I. The guitar is apparently intended to be played in unison with the voice. From the presence of numerous songs with Spanish words it may be inferred that the MS is of Neapolitan, or at least South Italian, origin.
