Lute Songs of John Dowland: The Original First and Second Books Including Dowland's Original Lute Tablature : Transcribed for Voice and Guitar

Rating:
Summary: A nice collection
Review: It took me awhile to get used to the traditional lute tab notation as I am coming from a regular guitar background (read standard notation & "modern" tablature). This is a good book if you can find it. If you also like steel-string acoustic guitar playing, check out the recordings and transcriptions by John Renbourne. There is another book that may be hard to find but worth it called "Complete Anthology for Medieval and Renaissance Guitar" that has some great transcriptions using alternate tunings by Renbourne.
