Sorry Stephen, you have probably already answered this, but are you
playing a 13c lute, or an 11c lute. A number of people who have moved
from Renaissance lute into the Baroque repertoire, and who have both
lute types, have told me that moving to a 13c lute, is far more
difficult than going the 11c way.

I suppose this does not interest you, or is not complete, and you
will know it, but some one else may be interested, so I will mention
it anyway:

It only came out for a few months before all the copies were sold.
Then Miguel decided to change editors. I know that some parts are
being slightly altered, but not, I think, substantially; and probably
not the music choices.
The main difference would be the presentation. The original is is
sort of loose-leaved, like a typical doctoral thesis. The new one
will be exacly like the Damiani, I think. It will therefore be more
sturdy, but Timo Peedu told me he prefers the original type, so I
suppose it depends on what your expectations are.
You could try sending a message to the French list, but I doubt if
anyone will want to part with this rather strange first edition.
