That should be Bologna, Civico Museo, not the Conservatory.

  Yes, it is for the three instruments, to be played solo or in ensemble.  It 
is a variation suite (balletto, volta, corrente, etc., ending with a 
'recercata."). It is a four-course guitar "alla Napolitana."

  For music facsimiles, it is always best to check theOMI on-line catalogue.  I 
couldn't find it there, nor is it in the LSA Microfilm Library. The unique copy 
is in the Conservatory Library in Bologna.

    Hello all,

    I'm wondering if anyone knows if the following exists in facsimile:

    Thomassini, Filippo (publisher): Conserto vago . composti da buono, ma 
incerto 
    auttore, libro primo (Rome, 1645). 36 pp.

    It is apparently a collection of trios written for lute, theorbo, and 
baroque 
    guitar, which I think is quite unique.  Also, if anyone knows any other 
    information about this source, I'd be much obliged!

    All best,

    Benjamin
