In this work the lute part is generally identical to the basso continuo
except in the accompagnato recit ' Der Glocken...' where it simply has
the lute playing single lines imitating the bells mentioned in the
recit text.
So just play single melodic lines in this recit (could add the odd bass
if felt impelled to do so) and double the BC elsewhere.

Subject: [LUTE] BC parts for Bach
Hi, folksâ
I've been asked to play in a performance of Bach's TrauerOde (BWV 198)
which calls for 2 lutes as well as several viola da gambas. Lovely,
moving piece.
Does anyone out there have a recommendation for a good edition? Or a
set of parts for the lute(s)?
Based on what I've received so far from the presenter for other pieces
on the program, I'm not anticipating him sending me a lute-friendly BC
part. I don't need an intabulation, but it would be great to find a
part that respects what the lute can do and doesn't have an
anachronistic keyboard realization stuck above the bass line.
I'm anticipating that the gamba parts may be on cello and that there
may not be another luter for the performance, so I expect to use a
theorbo for color and volume.
Suggestions/recommendations welcome.
Thanks in advance.
