(Picture to left)   [Text block wraps around picture:]

Here you will find more than 8000 lute pieces (60,000 files) in French
tablature in the fronimo (ft3), from Francesco Tribioli. Make sure you
have the latest version, as earlier versions may not be compatible. Pieces
are also provided in midi, TAB, and PDF formats.  I apologize to those
who prefer other tab styles, such as Spanish or Italian, but I believe
French is the most widely style, though it is easy to change in fronimo
to another format.

These pieces are mostly for renaissance lute, but quite a few are for
baroque lute and archlute, and a very few for theorbo, cittern, bandora,
guitar etc. Other pieces include songs, continuo, and other ensemble
pieces, listed by composer. Under Lute ensemble in the list of composers,
you will find pieces for two or more lutes.

I hope you get and give a great deal of pleasure from playing the pieces
on this site.
