Secondly, this study explores didactical sources, such as instructions for lute, vihuela, recorder or viol, or music theory and composition. The third part of the study concentrates on the process of creating progressive material to guide the lutenist to sing to their instrument, based on the historical sources and the repertoire studied in the first two parts.en780 - MusikSinging to the lute in the early 16th century11 - Studentische Arbeit
