descripção
One of the interesting treatises on the guitar of the seventeenth century is that of Gaspar Sanz, who describes himself as from the province of Aragon and a bachelor of
theology of the University of Salamanca. The book was published in 1674 in Zaraeoza with the title Instruction de Musica Sobre la Guitarra EspaHola, and contains detailed
mstructions m technique as well as many musical examples erf the dance forms popular in Spain such as Folios, Espafioletas, Rujeros and the Canarios transcribed below.
As with most music written for the baroque guitar it is impossible to re-create the original in a transcription, but the particularly Spanish charm of the dance comes through nevertheless.
