Thanks for sharing the info with us. Your delving into this
collection is enormously useful.
It does look as if the guitar is supposed to be playing along with
everyone else. But the list of artists in Albrici's ensemble paid in 1653
includes Bartolotti as the only theorbo player, one violinist/violist and
one keyboard player. All of the rest of the artists seem to be singers.
Perhaps they also played various instruments.

Subject: [VIHUELA] Guitar continuo example
While browsing the online Duben collection I stumbled upon a Sinfonia
by Albrici with a part listed for Chitarra.
It brought to mind Lex's inquiries about specific mention/uses of the
guitar as a continuo instrument.
Sinfonia a 6./Primo Tono./di/Sig:r Vincenzo Albrici./1654.
You can have a look here:

On part 08 click on "Browse Part". It's standard bass clef notation
with figures.
