Look in Casteliono for some early ones... (Borrono, da Milano) but very short pieces, to use as a prelude, or an end of a suite ? ;-) Val

Dear lutenists, while trying to activate my old "vieil accord" understanding, I have played some Toccate by 10-courser. I started with Piccinini 1639, then M. Galilei 1620, and today Kapsberger 1611: Kapsberger: [1]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ek_rdlOmfE8&feature=youtu.be [2]http://vimeo.com/41791916 Galilei: [3]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-YvpwODvOOU&feature=youtu.be [4]http://vimeo.com/41619395 Piccinini: [5]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KjD0k7_v9Hg&feature=youtu.be [6]http://vimeo.com/41573141 So I am going backwards in time. I think I have seen some lute Toccata compositions also before 1611, but I cannot remember where. So my question and suggestion: could we create a list early lute Toccatas?
