instrument names index

Page history last edited by Andrew Alder 14 years, 8 months ago

This is an index page

It's simply an alphabetical list of instrument names, linked to the pages on which tunings for them appear. See site structure for details.

 

There should be no tunings or external links on this page, just links to pages in this site on which actual tunings appear (which appear after the colon), links to disambiguation pages that help to identify which of several similarly-named instruments you want (which appear before the colon), and the occasionally explanatory comment.

 

Registers of instruments (such as soprano, alto, tenor, baritone or more rarely bass) and similarly-named instruments with different numbers of courses or strings may not always be listed separately unless tunings for them appear on different pages, so for example for tenor mandola or alto mandola, just see mandola below, or for seven string guitar see guitar below.

 

On the other hand, there are many instances of different instruments having the same name, and it's helpful to list them all. So for the renaissance tenor lute see either lute or tenor lute below, but for the laud, sometimes also called a tenor lute, see laud, Cuban laud or tenor lute.
