Hello Eugene, Thank you for clarifying this! It's true there is no discernable difference between the two-staff-systems with solo music and with ensemble music in dalla Casa, at first glance. That's why I first took the pieces, signed with mandolin, to be arrangements of ensemble music for the solo lute. Yet once I tried them, I soon noticed voice crossings between the staffs all over the pieces. Last September, I was lucky enough to play some of the music with Susanne Herre, mandolin. She is a marvelous player, and I realized that so is the music.
