Hey all! It's been a long time between visits, I hope you are all well.

I'm just writing to see if anyone knows of a site with the music to 'La Manfredina'? It sounds very like one of the Cantigas but in actual fact it's an Italian dance, or something. I rediscovered it today and I'm dying to find the sheet music!

le grá,

Erin

Will a MIDI file do? If you have Notworthy, you can get sheet music from that.........MIDI here. I found several places where you can order music if you are interested..........

There's a famous dance tune (with words as well) here in Northern Italy called "La Monferrina",is the same? I know both tune and words but don't know where to find a sheet music for it---just words if you're interested.Anyway "Monferrina" is a type of dance (as "jig" or "polka") but the most famous one took the name so now if you say "La Monferrina"you mean this song and not another. Always if it's the tune you're searching...
