"chitarrino" as in "chitarra" gives this "charango" - call the instrument what you will - an italian, european identity ... not chilean ... not bolivian ... not peruvian. for those interested, please have a look at the early music charango site address listed above. there you will find an illustration of a small, 5c. chordaphone called a “chittarino diuerso” – “diuerso” being a xvi-xvii century italian word meaning “different” – or “diverso” as it’s written today. the illustration appeared in “gabinetto armonico pieno d’istromenti sonori” – plate n° 100 – as compiled by filippo buonanni (1716.)
