Yes, indeed, Arto and Chris your supposition was a good one. I checked the Christian Meyer catalogue. By the way, his web site is back up now. That's an important place for all of us.
Saizenay: "Chaconne.des Harlequins mise par Mr. de Visee" (pages 340-1). Paris 1106: "chaconne des harlequins [de Visee]" (folio 138) Paris 6265, "chacone d'arlequin [de Visee]" (f. 53) All are from Lully's Bourgeois Gentilhomme. To this we can add Tom Berghan's arrangement played on his web site (last item of MP3's). Tom [plays for an early dance group and that's probably where he encountered Lully's piece. I'm a bit busy now. But I'll explain the request for information later.
