Abstract

In this paper, we gather and analyse the poems that appear in the preambles of Vihuela and Organ Treaties of the XVI Century. These writings reveal important contextual information, with references to these authors and constant allusions to Classical Greece. Also, these writings reveal the relevance and status of music among writers, printers and artists from different disciplines. This instalment is the first part of a wider work, which will deal with the poetry of many theoreticians (without an explicit relationship to a musical instrument) and musicians from other periods (XVII and XVIII Centuries).
