The beginner Baroque guitarist needs a guide before approaching unedited tablature, and James Tyler's new book, A Guide to Playing the Baroque Guitar . . . fulfills that need admirably., "The depth of detail in this volume is thorough and fascinating. Just a look at the chapter headings gives you some idea of the care taken in the researching of the very misunderstood instrument.... I cannot praise this volume highly enough. If there is anything not included in here, then it probably wasn't worth mentioning anyway. It is a fitting tribute to a much missed musician and should be snapped up by anyone with the smallest of interest in this fine period in our instrument's history." -Classical Guitar, The depth of detail in this volume is thorough and fascinating.

NOTE TO SELLER: packaging was NOT appropriate for item; it was a flimsy, plastic envelope, with no stiff material to prevent creases. The book came with two deep creases that involved the *entire* item: one is a 1" triangle lower left side (bound edge); the other is a 7" triangle on upper right side (open edge).Beautiful Music for Two String Instruments, Bk 3: 2 Violins by Samuel Applebaum (#403989405345)
