•I I t was a bout of Foscarini-itis that set me off on the idea of arranging lute music by Alessandro Piccinini for
baroque guitar. I had plunged myself into reading, playing and editing the music in Gio. Paolo Foscarini’s Li cinque libri della chitarra alla spagnola (Rome, 1640) as soon as the fascimile arrived and eventually I came to the Ciacona on page 107. James Tyler pointed out that it was actually an arrangement of Piccinini’s Chiaconna Mariona alla vera spagnola which had appeared in 1639. Foscarini had taken the sections that fit most comfortably on the baroque guitar and made occasional adjustments, such as transposing bass notes. Comparing the original and the Foscarini version led me to read through other Piccinini lute music on the guitar and create this small collection (with historic precedent). I hope you enjoy the results.

- 2 - (Piccinini) Foscarini: Ciacona
Based on Piccinini’s “Chiaccona Mariona alla vera Spagnola” from Intavolatura di liuto...Libro Secondo (Bologna, 1639), pp. 49–52. Foscarini sections 1–5 = Piccinini 1–5, F 6–7 = P 9–10, F 8–13 = P 14–19, F 14 = P 21, F 15–23 = P 25–33. Piccinini’s original has a total of 37 sections. Foscarini’s messy section 9 (marked with a dashed bracket] has been reconstructed from Piccinini’s original.
