Ron commented on Toyohiko Satoh. He has done so much for composing
music for lute. He has done to my knowledge, 2 tombeaus, one for
Alice Parkinson and another for David Phillips, both American lutenists
who passed away in the 1980's. He has done at lease 3 CD's of his
works as well. the latest one in in 2016.

I have heard it a few days ago, as it is available on Spotify.
I daresay it is Muhly's best, and his least modernist piece I've heard.

By the way, has *anyone* else heard the Nico Muhly piece?

Newer music for the lute is a tough sell because it subverts
audience expectations. I don't think it's too much of an
assumption
to say that most lute fans (both listeners and players) became
interested in the instrument because they were attracted to
early
music first. Therefore, in this mindset, the lute is "for"
early
music and anything else introduces disconcerting cognitive
dissonance. Some folks are genuinely offended that anyone
would play
something other than old European music on a lute. That's a
significant enough segment of the already tiny lute audience
that
one risks alienating. That's a large disincentive to spend the
time
learning modern pieces, even for those interested in expanding
the
repertoire. (Personally, I've never seen it this way at all.
To me,
anything that sounds good on the instrument is fair game,
regardless
of style or period.)
It's interesting that the harpsichord has not had this
problem.
There is a sizeable body of contemporary music for solo
harpsichord
as well as in ensemble compositions written by heavy weight
composers. The late Elizabeth Chojnacka made virtually her
entire
career out of performing contemporary harpsichord music. (She
passed
away this past May.)

Not exactly "new", but modern:
Charles Tournemire requests a lute in
his 8th Symphony (1924) :)
Not a piece you can play with your
friends though, except if you are
friends with a Philharmonic
Orchestra...
