Dear Arthur:
I'm glad to know that I got your attention. Yes, i was mainly describing the
fantasia from Bottegari + Chilesotti's ms. This misattribution was by Chiesa,
who seemed to feel strongly that it was Francesco's. I don't.
There are several other pieces that it seems were deliberately misattributed by
16th century publishers, probably for the sales/recognition factor. The most
obvious is N. (that's you) 11. The rest of my examples are merely a matter of
a player's opinion, and include everything attributed to Francesco di Parigi,
everything from Vincenzo Galileo Fiorentino (Rome, 1563), and nearly everything
from the Siena ms. My opinion.
Best,
Ron Andrico
