What do we think of the ms. with "continuo" written above a part for
   13c. lute in normal d minor tuning for certain arias?  Are these
   settings for chamber perfromance but not the operas themselves? the
   handwriting seems identical to large portions of the Weiss  Dresden
   ms.   Curious how widespread this practice was, and if maybe players
   sometimes used their 13s for continuo even if they said otherwise. r.
