Indeed. And, as an aid to finding your own interpretation, try and
identify the harmonic changes (often, but not always, concurrent with a
low bass) and shape your arpeggios and scalic passages around these
phrases. Bear in mind that in these unmeasured works flags are only the
crudest of indicators: variations of speed within phrases is, in my
view, stylistically acceptable and to be promoted.

Subject: [LUTE] Re: S.L.Weiss, Prelude WeissSW 33.1
Hello Dennis,
in the original there is no flag at all (we should change that on
mss.slweiss.de ...). These preludes are relative freely, sort of
"prA(c)lude non mesurA(c)" as you wrote, but very often they have some
pulse
in it, that you can find, if you play it several times
I would say, it is in the response of the player to make sense out of
it.
Best regards
Markus
