Monteverdi: Si dolce è'l tormento, lute solo

This is my own intabulation of Monteverdi's song. The music can be found in page http://www.cs.helsinki.fi/u/wikla/mus/own/Intabs/
The soprano lute is made after model "Wendelio Venere", Vienna, c.1580, by Timo Kontio, 1997. Arto Wikla, 3.6.2008.

Beautiful! Love how the phrases breathe... Thank you. I just keep investigating this piece -- I'll be performing it live in concert with my favorite soprano soon (I'm a harpsichordist, but a harpsichordist with relatively little musical imagination of her own) ... In other words, I'll probably steal at least one idea from you, too.

Hi all,

I made also another version, this time for 10-course lute. Just search "Monteverdi Wikla" in YouTube.
