This type of guitar doesn't not correspond to Early Music but it is a
direct descendant of very old instruments that survived (with their natural
but small evolution) until today.
Proviene del árabe kitara, que se originó, a su vez,
en el griego kithara, el nombre de la cítara. Directamente del árabe, fueron
asimismo tomados el portugués y el catalán guitarra, y de este último se
deriva el provenzal guitara así como el italiano chitarra, ya usado en el
siglo XV, aunque también se encuentran por esa época quintara y chitera en
diferentes dialectos italianos. En todo caso, la guitarra se tocaba desde
muy antiguo, principalmente en España, según se encuentra documentado desde
el siglo XIII en textos e íconos. Por esa época, se conocían dos tipos de
guitarras: la latina y la morisca o sarracena. La primera, de caja chata, es
la precursora de la guitarra moderna, mientras la segunda, de caja
redondeada y más parecida al laúd, fue introducida en España por los
invasores árabes. En la Edad Media, en España se llamaba vihuela ‘de viola’
a todos los instrumentos de cuerdas ajustables con clavijas, ya fueran
tocados por arco ‘vihuela de arco’ o con los dedos ‘vihuela de mano’. La
guitarra moderna adquirió una nueva dimensión con la obra del músico español
Francisco Tárrega (1854-1909), quien innovó en la posición de las manos y en
el modo de pulsar las cuerdas, además de adaptar al instrumento obras de
Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, Chopin, Schumann y Albéniz.
