You may be right! The ceterone is folksy cittern-like in sound, yet dark

that the score is actually a conscious description of how the muscial

If their purpose is to sound underworldly, they would play i
Since there were Ceteroni in that time period, and because of the fact
that Monteverdi made clear his continuo colors (though this is a
documentation, not a recommendation), I would opt for real Ceteroni.
Since the colors of the Underworld are very different, I would rule out
the "et cetera".

One normally thinks that instruments of that time were mostly
exchangeable if the range of notes is suitable.
In this case, it would make sense to assume a deliberate addition of
"attack" to the viol by mixing it with the mainly "attack" sound of the
harp. Of course only if they sit close to eac
