Andrew, I have a film and a paper copy of the book - which should not be called "Cosens Lutebook".
As far as I remember it does not contain any music for the bandora. I will check my database which I can't access now.

Ms. 3056. The "Cosens Lutebook". French tab for 7 course lute and 6-course bandora. Includes pieces by Dowland, Batchelar, Daniel, etc. Does anyone know if Nordstrom missed this source? Or is there an error in stating that Cosens contains bandora works? (My bet is on the latter.) Incidentally, I've already read the description of Cosens in Julia Craig-McFeely's dissertation and saw no mention of the bandora, only a description of one piece in a non-viel ton tuning. Perhaps this is the cause for the confusion? (However, Nordstrom does not include this piece in his list of "Doubtful Works and Misattributions"...)
