Dozens of toccatas were written for this instrument and a longer member of the same family by Giovanni Kapsberger. This instrument, which was played by members of the Gaultier family, (-5[1])accompanied vocal parts in a French musical style called “air de cour,” drawing from a collection that included the duet “My Lord Chamberlain, His Galliard.” Michelagnolo and Vincenzo Galilei (15[1])both composed music for this instrument, which is related to the (*) theorbo. This string instrument (10[1])was the subject of one composer's Lachrimae, as well as songs including "In darkness let me dwell" and “Flow my tears.” English Renaissance composer John Dowland wrote music for this plucked string instrument. For 10 points, name this early guitar-like instrument (10[1])with an angled neck and pear-shaped body, whose types include the mandolin. ■END■
