Biography
Ruiz de Robledo's musical reputation rests entirely on his treatise "Luz y norte musicale," a text that outlines foundational techniques and performance methods for the guitar and harp while also presenting wider essays on musical subjects. He promoted Spanish tuning for the five-course guitar, and the same compendium gathers compositions by Ruiz de Robledo, Sanz, Lorente, and del Vado.
