Luis de Narváez (c. 1500 – 1555/1560) was a Spanish composer, primarily of polyphonic vocal music, and only secondarily of music for the vihuela, for which he is far better remembered today. The vihuela was a plucked instrument that flourished primarily in Spain in the 15th through 17th centuries; it was somewhat larger than a present-day guitar, was tuned like a lute and, in Spain, largely took the place of the lute. <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/Luis+de+Narv%C3%A1ez">Read more on Last.fm<
