Suppose I given a piece of early Baroque music, take Monteverdi's duet "Ardo e scoprir"[1] by way of specific example, and I want to create a passable continuo line to support the singers (potentially with me singing one of lines). I come armed with my lute, an a-historic Dm 13c lute, a certain amount of theory, but no real clue apart from "play the indicated root" and "arpeggiate the triads". Given this is akin to asking "how do you realize a bass," can anyone point me in the direction of how you start such a journey on a lute? And if the theory is much different using a Dm lute rather than theorbo? Many thanks .. mark.
