Thank you for your advice and best wishes on this Xmas Day.

    I was aware of Kirsch's work (ref below) which as you say contains
   incipits tho' few concordances but don't have a personal copy to hand -
   hence my plea! My usual University Library is the fine Brotherton
   collection at Leeds but, alas, they don't have Kirsch's work.

   1992. Dieter Kirsch. Berliner Lautentablaturen in Krakau: bescheibender
   Katalog der handschriftlichen Tablaturen fuer Laute in der Bibliotheka
   Jagiellonska. Mainz: Schott, 1992.

   I'm also aware of Mayer's excellent work but find the index not
   always the most useful tool since I can't obtain a direct listing of
   40032 as such (as far as I can see) but, as you say, can scroll through
   the alphabetic entries for ALL Ms to identify pieces linked to a
   particular source ...... I was rather hoping there might be a dedicated
   listing of the Ms to save me this chore. Oddly, the works 'in
   progress'  do list contents by individual Ms. Am I missing something?

   regards

   Martyn

      Perhaps I can add a bit to this discussion.  On Wayne Cripps's Lute
      Page I have posted a number of "Finding Tools," which can be useful
   in
      answering questions such as Martyn's.  The manuscript Mus Ms 40032
      formerly in the Prussian State Library in Berlin is one of those
   lute
      tablatures which were thought to have been destroyed in World War II
      (soldiers were seen burning books to keep warm near the castle where
      they had been stored for safekeeping when bombs began falling on
      Berlin).  They turned up about 15 years ago in Krakow,* and Mus Ms
      40032, perhaps intended for vihuela, is in many ways one of the most
      fascinating of the Jagiellonska tablatures. Many  of us look forward
   to
      the edition mentioned by Miles Dempster now under preparation by
   Dinko
      Fabris and John Griffiths.

      G. Crona suggested one item from my lists, the catalogue of lute
      manuscripts at the Jagiellonska library, "1992: Dieter Kirsch." It
      contains a title list with tablature incipits of all the works in
   Mus
      Ms 40032, as well as a few concordances.
      A better place to look especially for concordances would be volume
      III/2 of "1991-9: Christian Meyer" on the "Finding Tools." According
   to
      the World Catalogue** 74 libraries have the Meyer's  Sources (for
      Martyn, including the British Library and the university libraries
   at
      Cambridge, Oxford and Glasgow).
      The indexes to Christian Meyer's inventories are on line (I give the
      link [3][3]http://www.bnu.fr/Smt/sommaire.htm), and include
   extensive,
      updated lists of concordances for each piece. One can use the
   indexes
      to satisfy Martyn's wish for on-line information.  Go to the on-line
      Sommaire, and the list of indexes about half way down the page.
   Select
      "titres", click on each letter of the alphabet, and use 40032 as
   search
      term.  "A" will give you 4 "hits," and "B" 6, most with several
      concordances.  Voil`a.

      *The acccount of the missing sources (which included the autograph
   MSS
      to Magic Flute, the finale to the Ninth, etc.) is told in Nigel

      Music (London: Hamish Hamilton Ltd., 1981). x + 246 pp.
      **See "Literature and Modern editions" on the "Finding" list. A
      fantastically useful tool.  Enter your ZIP Code or state to locate
      nearest libraries having the desired item.  Also be sure to use the
      filters in the left column to narrow your search. You can join the
      World Catalogue and make your own private bibliographies.  Another
      world-wide search engine is the Karlsruhe Connection, also listed
      nearby.   It is also useful in searching for books to purchase (see
      last column ); that's how I found and purchased a copy of
   Paperchase.
