Proposes that there was a distinction between “chitarra italiana” and “chitarra spagnola”, that the former was the successor of the gittern, and prevailed in Italy until the late 17th century. Proposes that this is the instrument from which the chitarrone developed. Also considers the related Bandora.
Also contains a good amount of detail about stringed instrument making and playing in Naples in the late 16th and early 17th centuries.
