I was playing through the 1611 Kapsperge book and I came across the Corrente 7. Toward the end of the piece there is an 11 marked in the bass for the eleventh course B flat. This I think is the only instance of an eleventh course in the book. I was under the impression that Kapsperger wrote for the 10 course lute, and there was perhaps no such thing and an 11 course lute in that tuning at the time. Could he have been implying an Archlute? What is going on here? Sterling
