Journal Article
21 hands for playing
2019
Overview
The ‘Krakow lute tablature’ (c.1553–1592) is preserved among the little-explored collections of the Ivan Franco National University in Lviv, Ukraine. This article is devoted to the 21 unique hand drawings on the tablature folios. Did such illustrations have any significance for readers of tablature in the 16th century? Were the hand-signs intended to convey information about the pieces to which they were obviously assigned, or even about the manuscript as a whole? Were they of didactic importance, and do they relate to performance practice around 1550 in the Polish–Lithuanian region? Could they have been used to help with the memorization of pedagogical instructions, or were they perhaps entered alongside the tablature ‘just for fun’?
