Period Sources of Printed Music for Cittern, Bandora, & Orpharion In the information about Melii's work of 1616 for citara tiorbata, I listed Segerman's suggested tuning of A-B-c-d-f-b-g-d'-e'. Upon further examination, this cannot be correct, as the 7th course (following both the music and the 7-course tuning of Paolo Virchi) calls for G. According to the tablature and the music of the other parts, the 9th course could be either A or F. (The 8th course is not used.) 8/25/10
