I am posting my transcription of the Castelfranco Manuscript on this page to make it available to anyone who is interested.

I used Adobe Photoshop to clarify pages that presented water damage.

I would like to receive any suggestion/corrections you may have. After I review it to make corrections, I will send it various sites promoting lute or Renaissance music.  Feel free to send me an email me or use the comment section.
