Either lute or organ could play the original chanson and the other could take the fancy bits. The London Pro Musica editions work nicely - for example #13, Divisions on Vestiva i colli (Palestrina), includes simple reductions for lute and keyboard plus 4 variations. Though a bit of work, they aren't as difficult as the Terzi duets. They, too, would be fair game for the duo but you might be doing your own editing.

I can see that the real solution for my children is simply to forge ahead with the figured bass, otherwise it won't be possible! Meanwhile, Arto Wikla sent me a PDF of the Robert Dowland score, for which I am very grateful.

I am wondering if there are some scores that combine lute tablature with a fully realized keyboard part, as my children are not able yet to read from figured bass. If any of you has seen or produced something like that, I'd be excited to see it. Hi Peter, Lute and small organ together was a very common continuo combination, especially in England in the 17th century. It works really well because the two instruments compliment each other perfectly: the lute has a precise attack but can't sustain, while the organ sustains but lacks a precise attack. Unfortunately there are very few if any written out realizations. A particular question: Has anyone seen Caccini's "Amarilli, mia bella" written out in tablature for a 6-course lute? Robert Dowland published a tablature edition of this song in his 1610 book "A Musical Banquet," available in a modern facsimile. It's probably also at [2][4]imslp.org, but their web site seems to be down today.
