Regla para entrastar is written for a five-course instrument, with tuning AA Dd GG BB e. It is unknown if it was written in Guatemala or if it was brought from Spain. Some ilustrations for the alfabeto chords are very similar to the ones found in Sanz - actually, they look like copies. However, there are more chords in regla para entrastar than in Sanz. Music includes Baile Inglés, a minuet and a Contradanza.
Manuel Alvarez is an otherwise unknown musician. He wrote for an instrument tuned in fourths (maybe Dd GG cc f). This unusual tuning has also been found in Italy (see Soundboard, Vol XXII, No 1). Music in the Alvarez manuscript includes Canarios, Marizápalos, Marionas, and many which include the word "Fantasmas" (ghosts) in the title.
Great fun to play!
