Italian renaissance lute music. 2010 recording.

Molinaro-Fantasia1

This is one of the best-known Italian renaissance dances, originally published in "Il primo libro di balli" in 1578.

Based on a four-part arrangement by Stephen Hendricks (I'm not playing his bass part).

Recorded on (in this order):

Mid-Missouri M-111 octave mandola (GDAE)
1915 Luigi Embergher bowlback mandolin
"Baroq-ulele" bowlback soprano ukulele/lute (tuned in fifths, GDAE)

Each instrument plays the melody once through and then takes a harmony part for the next lead instrument.
