Yes, it is a fun for player or a show for spectators, indeed. But
musically I wouldn't cry not having the note on a 'swan' type
instrument. One can easly move the bass note (or better both basses in
the measure) up and play the Fugue. A few bars later a place similar
harmonically has the C sharp on the 6th course, as usually, regardless
of logics in the bass voice.
On the other hand, I tried the note on my 'Edlinger' and must say all
the discussion on temperament not long ago on the Lute-Liste in this
case would have to be put into fairy-tales.

For a long time I had only the 11-c lute and played everything on it,
including anything by Weiss, even Kropfgans, Hagen (Concerto!) and
Kohaut. However not without a pain in some places ;-)) As for dilema
between 'rider' or 'swan', the one or two notes stopped on the 9th or
10th course, what happens once or twice in a whole Weiss (I don't
remember), you cen always play an 8ve higher. I try to remember that
the amount of Music in music is the thing which matters. The rest is
technology.
