Episode 2. Giovanni Paolo Foscarini. Guitar, lute, and theorbo.

4 augustus 2022

In the early 17th century the guitar became very popular in Italy, in particular because the instrument is ideally suited to accompany oneself, in popular songs. Around 1630, players began looking for a more sophisticated use of the instrument. Giovanni Paolo Foscarini, who played the guitar as well as the lute and the theorbo, started to integrate the plucked polyphony of the lute and the strummed chords of the guitar.
