Ispinellu a frassettu (m)

(with) definite article: ? [su?]
➺ remark(s) below
Identical types: 29
Kuntsertu (de launeddas)

From Italian "falsetto" [idem]; Franco Oppo shows the tuning for an Ispinellu a frassettu in F, which differs from the tuning he and others show for the (common) Ispinellu, thus oddly conflicting with his general statement regarding Frassettus.

Tuning of an Ispinellu a frassettu in F, by Franco Oppo: Mankosedda: Arrefinu: c¹; Krais: f¹-g¹-a¹-b♭¹; Mankosa manna: Arrefinu: f¹; Krais: g¹-a¹-b♭¹-c²; Tumbu: f.
NB: Example(s) to be replaced with staff-notation.
