Well, there are Pittoni's Sonatas da chiesa and da camera for theorbo with a continuo part for organ and cembalo respectively. Also Kapsberger's third and fourth chitarrone books with a continuo part that could be done on keyboard. No written out parts that I know. Also, those works

Geoff, Many thanks for your note. 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. Peter On Mon,

Hi Peter, Dowland's son Robert published Amarilli with written out tabulature in 1610 in his "Musicall Banquet". It is to 7 course lute, but easily adopted to 6 courser. Arto PS If you wish, I can take a photo of those 2 pages and send them to you. On 02/11/15 18:56, Peter Kwasniewski

Hello Peter, I would try some Diego Ortiz first, but it could require transposition. Ortiz really rocks :-) Also the Vivaldi trios with lute will work well, you wouldn't need the unisono-violin. And there's an anonymous concerto for lute and continuo from the Spencer collection. There was a
