Sodelina (f)

(with) definite article: la
Sordelina

Erroneous spelling in Pedro Cerone, »El melopeo y maestro: tractado de mvsica theorica [sic] y pratica« (1613), vol.1, cap.1; Injudiciously copied in Marcuse, who, moreover, erroneously calls it a "17th century var. of [the Italian!] Sordellina", failing to reveal her source; NB: ➺ my remark to Sodina.
