Giacomo Gorzanis

Gorzanis was a lute virtuoso extrordinaire who was simply blind and perhaps a member from the nobility. He was actually received into citizenship by Austria. The Italian variant dance suite didn’t exist before Gorzanis’ compositions which is believed that he might have contributed with their advancement. The lute functions had been at least essential foreshadowings from the suite. A lot of Gorzanis’ compositions had been dances created polyphonically while some employed the usage of refrains. Configurations had been quite demanding frequently using six-note chords; the performer was frequently required to make use of the highest possible placement for the device. Gorzanis’ “Libro de intabluatura di liuto. . .” included 24 dance pairs, early suites, made up in each one of the major and small keys.
