Vihuela
The Vihuela, a historical string instrument from the Renaissance, may be less known to today's guitar players, yet it attracts passionate musicians with its delicate yet powerful sound. This traditional Spanish instrument features a flat back and six double-string courses, similar to a classical guitar, and is often used in ensemble musical compositions from the 15th and 16th centuries. The Vihuela was particularly popular in Spain and Italy and serves as an important foundation for the development of the classical guitar. Today, the Vihuela is mainly played by musicians who specialize in historical performances, aiming to revive the authentic sound of the Renaissance.
