After almost 25 years I'm revisiting these interesting works for
concerted lutes by Pacoloni:
(Tribus testudinibus lucenda carmina, Phalese, 1564)
I recall at the time we were puzzled by some of the second sections to
some of the parts ('Residuum') which seemed to have a strange
relationship with the first section of each part and also with the
second (often divided) sections of the other parts.
The BASSUS is straightforward and gives a simple exposition of each
dance, but the SUPERIUS and TENOR(US) parts have these divided sections
(and/or Residuum) with the strange key relationships most often
occurring in the TENOR part (which oddly then goes on to end in the
correct key for the closing few bars).
In the time interval, I had thought someone might have decoded this
but, having searched the Lute Soc and Lute Soc of America archives, can
find nothing. Similarly a search of the internet throws up nothing
related to this particular feature.
Can anyone shed any light and, preferably, point me in the direction of
a paper?
