"For anyone interested in Milán's music, this is an excellent source of
information." --Renaissance Quarterly
Luis Milán (1536-1561) was a lutenist, singer, composer, and poet. His
collection of lute tablatures, El Maestro, is the first book of
instrumental music known to have been printed in Spain. Luis Gásser
discusses Milán's attention to modality, his use of meter, and the
ornamentation in his songs and fantasías.
