Probably Thomas means the "In Venetiis" - this is 11-course music
completely.
There we have mostly really early works of Weiss and some French works
also, possibly from 1712 - but the date can hardly be read.
The "Weiss a Rome" is a much later manuscript (although some of the
music is very early also), probably around 1740, as there is a Tombeau
by Gebel in it and also some Chorals by Falckenhagen.

the entire Paris MS is for the 11-course lute. Charming stuff BTW

. there are some "5"s and "6"s lurking though...
(we are talking about the "Weiss à Rome" ms, aren't we?)
