I also was very astonished about the title of the mail.
Biechteler is Matthias Sigismund Biechteler of Greiffenthal (about
1668-1743), who was the successor of Biber in Salzburg and played the
lute. But I don't think there is a piece by him in MS Egerton 2046.
There are some in A-Wös ms. 120 and PL-Kj ms. mus. 40620.
Furthermore he seems to have been involved in A-KR78.
Pichler still is a mistery. For sure he cannot be identified with
Placide Marie Pichler - he is much too late and it is never said that he
played the lute.
Best regards

Dear Friends,
Some years ago I was reading through the original tabulature manuscript
MS Egerton 2046 ("Jane Pickering Lute Book") in the British Library,
London. This manuscript is know as one of the finest sources of the
English lute repertory, because it contains more than 80 renaissance
lute pieces from composers such as Dowland, Rosseter, Bacheler and
Johnson.
However, the great surprise at least for me was that in the middle of
the book varying writers have added - partially in an
upside-down-orientation in the manuscript - early baroque lute music
from French and English composers. To make it even more attractive,
these pieces in French Tabulature are for lutes in various Accords
Nouveaux tunings. To play these pieces I had to re-string and re-tune
my baroque lute to one of the early baroque lute tunings know today as
Accords Nouveaux.
I have now completed my amateur home recording of some pieces in the
socalled "Tuning Gautier" as presented in the manuscript. This "Tuning
Gautier" corresponds to the Goy 2a tuning of
fis',d',h,g,d,A,G,Fis,E,D,C. Apparently, this tuning makes reference to
the French lutenist Jacques Gautier who was in England from 1617 until
about 1640.
I hope there are experts around (such as Andreas Schlegel) explaining
us more in detail the "Accords Nouveaux Story".
The 11ch lute I play is from Renatus Lechner, Bremen, Germany.
I look forward to your critical comments to following pieces:
