I was playing through the Lute Society's Lutezine 109, Part 2 (More
Giovannis)—no. 4, "Passemezzi" to be exact.  Parts of it sounded
familiar; in fact, some bars are identical to an "Untitled" from the
Rowallen Lute Book.  Sorry I can't be more specific about the latter:  I
have it in Ronn McFarlane's Scottish Lute (Mel Bay), no. 48, p. 39 of the
lute section.  There is no indication of which folio of the manuscript the
piece is from. Are these cognates?  Variants of a common passamezzo?  Can
someone more knowledgeable check this out?

Thanks and regards,
Leonard Williams
