Daniel,
I didn't know Conradi's music so thanks for sharing these beautiful pieces.
I'd love to hear that Barto's bootleg!
I looked at the New Grove Dictionary of Music and found there are two
Conradi. Based on the publication date you give (1724), I guess these works
are from Johann Melchior, son of Johann Georg, both Kapellmeisters at
Oettingen. Nonetheless, the New Grove doesn't mention any lute works by
them...
Interestingly, it talks about an "aria transcribed for cithrinchen (a
lute-like instrument popular in Hamburg in the late 17th century)" by Johann
Georg. This is something new to me too, as I didn't know this instrument
either (I've read it's some kind of bell-shaped cittern).
Regards,
Nicolás
