Do we know whether the 'split-course technique' as it is sometimes
termed nowadays was a notation to indicate that only one particular
string of an octave course was actually to be employed, or whether it
was pedantic intabulation to indicate in which octave the
composer/arranger wished to show the strict counterpoint theoretically
fell? Or perhaps some other indication.......
Grateful for a source.

Bakfarks use of split-course technique in the Krakow lute book:
1. Jesu nomen sanctissimum. Secunda pars: Sit nomen domini, measure 9
2. Circumdederunt me, measure 25, measure 56
3. Secunda pars: Quoniam tribulatio, measure 15
4. Qui habitat in adjutorio, measure 59
5. Secunda pars: Non accedar, measure 27

Of course I did not mean the fourth but the third course, sorry for
the confusion. So Capirola as far as I know did not employ split
octave courses.
Where does Fuenllana mention splitting the courses? I have not
found
any reference. As I have no complete edition of Bakfark where does
he use this technique?
Can anyone inform?
