Dear lutenists,

I happened to find a simple but also quite beautiful little piece to baroque lute. It is in one of the Kremsmunster mss., A-KR L83b, fol. 25r, piece number 248.There is no name of the piece, neither of the composer, but somehow this piece sounds so familiar!

The piece is so song-like that I think it must be an instrumental arrangement of a song, perhaps taken from some popular opera around 1700 in Vienna?

So, if somebody happens to know this piece, please let me know!

All the best,

Arto

PS The d-minor tuning is really a clever idea! I could not have imagined that before getting into it... :-)
