Of course, appropriate parts might be used according to key. Likewise the Spinacino prelude. I forgot to mention, the LSA Microfilm Library has the Gorzanis manuscript, but the catalogue notes that it is defectuve. My recollection on seeing the film many years ago was that the Gorzanis part is legible, and it is some pieces added in a later hand that cannot be read on the microfilm. But I think his other books contain the more interesting music. Thanks for the reminder about Mlle Bocquet. She is credited with the Prelude. There at least three Bocquets who played lute. The other famous one was Charles B. To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html
