No - it is in the G tuning. I have a copy: Edition Breitkopf Nr 5781/Sonate Werk 31 Nr 5/Laute allein (published 1947 plate No 31274). The first page specifies the G tuning David's Op 32/2 'Variationen uber ein Thema fur Blockflote und Laute' (B&H 5783 published 1949 plate No 31266) also specifies the G tuning. Both lute parts are in the octave transposing G2 clef (like the modern guitar) MH
