I have been enjoying 10 course music for the last few years and one of
my favorite manuscripts is the ML lute book. There is a lot of music in
there by Surt and Robert Johnson. It's a great place to explore
ornaments and is also very helpful because the right hand fingering is
marked on almost everything.
Another favorite manuscript of 10 course music is Prague G.IV.18 - the
Rettenwert Ms. I have Fronimoed a lot of this and it's up on my website
www.GroundsandDivisions.inco
Julia Craig McFeely has a list of the concordances, even though it's not
an English manuscript.

Dear Collective Wisdom: I have grown so accustomed to easy access to catalogues
and concordances in the baroque lute world thanks to Peter Steur’s excellent
website that when I have a Ren Ms to query I feel lost. Specifically, is there
a catalogue of the contents of the Danzig 4022 which I have been reading
through as I enjoy my new 10 course? Lovely music, a couple of recent fine
recordings and many tunes that sound familiar though marked anon. Was even
surprised to find a version of the Piccinini Sarabande I just recently made a
video of.
So generally, is there a Ren lute manuscript resource similar to the Baroque
site and specifically, does such a listing exist for the Danzig 4022
Thanks in advance
Danny
