What I find intriguing about Zamboni is how _very_ sparingly he uses the
diapasons. The 14th course is used only 3 or 4 times throughout all of the
11 sonatas.
The 12 and 13th are likewise rather scarce (made full use of in only a few
movements - in Sonata IV 12th only on last note!), in fact much of the music
is set on just 6 courses and I would imagine that most of it would fit very
well on an 11- or even 10 course instrument. (Perhaps even on an 8-course if
stretching it a bit!)
I love this music! IMO one of the lute canon's best kept secrets. I've made
my own playing edition (its quite free of mistakes as well) and listened to
the tasty -94 Contini CD. Miles Dempster's edition I haven't seen, but
imagine it should be good.
