Dear Ray Thanks for the clarification. I had thought from your initial comment that the missing lute parts for the Dowland lute songs etc. might be elsewhere on the site, but clearly they're not. The Lute part that you cite for Go from my Window bears little resemblance to Morley's original.

Hello Anthony, My rather intemperate comments weren't specifically about Susato, which I would imagine doesn't have a lute part anyway, but about the way in which the lute part has been simply left out from the many pieces which *do* have one - Dowland songs, Lachrimae etc - which I find a huge

Hello Martin You are obviously correct. I did not look at any other pieces except the Susato which I chanced upon with a Google search. I sent the actual PDF piece to Stephen, but could not do the same for the whole list, so I just sent the link to the page itself. I am glad that you were
