[edit]The tiento was developed for the vihuela (a lute-like instrument) before it became a standard organ form in the Iberian peninsula. Although the meaning of "falsas" given is etymologically correct, as used by Spanish organist writers of the 16th and 17th centuries it means no more than "suspensions". Tientos de falsas are rarely truly comparable to the Italian "durezze e ligature" style (meaning "dissonances and suspensions", not "consonance and dissonance" as stated).

Manuel Rodrigues Coelho was not Spanish, why is he under Spanish composers? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.152.188.234 (talk) 03:32, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
Hi I changed the translation of tentar from "to try out" to "to tempt", as "to try out" is intentar, not tentar. I'm not sure if the verb "to tempt" is correct: tentar means to kind of dare, tempt, someone, to gain his attention. If you come up with a better translation, go ahead and change it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.232.18.223 (talk) 00:21, 9 June 2009 (UTC)
