The following is a table of period printed (as opposed to manuscript) sources for cittern music. The list is derived mostly from the New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians articles on "cittern" and "ceterone," as well as my own research.Clicking on a title in blue will display the contents for that book. I hope eventually to have links to the contents for all extant prints. If there are any other sources you know of that have been missed, or if you have a correction, please contact me and I will be more than happy to include them.

N.B. A title in brackets denotes a lost source.

Secondo Libro D'Intavolatura di Citara	Vincenti, G.	1602	Venetia: Giacomo Vincenti	6c. diatonic*	Italian tab.	* Tablature is for a "strictly" diatonic instrument (i.e. no partial frets in chromatic positions), but uses asterisks to indicate chromatic notes between the diatonic frets. The tablature system appears to be an attempt to fit later music to a more archaic(?) instrument. Does the fact that this is a "secondo libro" indicate that there had been a previous book for cittern by Vincenti?
