New edition in Spanish, Italian, English, German (with separate Viol part).
Diego Ortiz's Trattado is a classic in the art of musical embellishment. Part 1 gives examples of every tempo while part 2 discusses the interplay between viola da gamba and harpsichord, including many pieces for this combination of instruments as illustrations.
This new edition makes the work more accessible by choosing a synoptic layout: the original Spanish and Italian are printed on a double-page spread along with translations into modern German and English. There is an introduction by Annette Otterstedt which explains the Trattado and its origins, the various tunings, and questions regarding the instrument. The musical section has been freshly engraved, and a separate viol part simplifies performances with a keyboard instrument. For the first time, Ortiz's text is now available to an international readership in the original and in translation at the same time.
