I taught this class at Atlantian Fall University, 2015.  The class covers italian and french tablature notation for the renaissance guitar, lute and vihuela, and the alfabeto notation used for the late period guitar.  Alfabeto notation appears near the end of the SCA period, and eventually evolved to include a combination of alfabeto and italian tablature in the Baroque.  The class begins with a brief overview of the instruments & tuning considerations, then moves on to period style notation.
