Publisher's blurb:
The cittern was popular in the sixteenth century and on into the Elizabethan and Jacobean ages. Despite the popularity of the instrument, not many sources of cittern music are extant. The present collection contains the complete modern edition of The Cittharn Schoole by Anthony Holborne, printed in 1597, and all other known works for cittern solo by the same composer. The other known works were transcribed from manuscripts and early print sources. This volume contains 68 pieces for cittern, plus three variants, as well as Notes on the Tablature.
