Nice playing, both recordings! I for one go with the 11c lute. I noticed that you play a bit quicker on it, and I suppose that's not only because you've become more familiar with the piece or the 11c lute is more handy. I think the 13c lute takes a little while for response. Not only because of synth strings and ringing basses, but also because of the general concept of 13c lutes. Of course you can play quick on a 13c lute, but not this kind of piece.
