Well, not all of it,

and it seems that this is probably half of "Modern Swedish lute music"
if not more....

Well, I'm not sure. Modern Swedish lute music seems to be in modern
notation, or much of it anyway. The Five White Pieces by Lars Sandberg
would be a lot more straightforward in tablature, or at least some way
of indicating where certain notes are to be played. I can only figure
out how just one of the five pieces could possibly be fingered. For
example Sandberg often wants the note b (as found on the third course,
second fret) sustained while other things are happening. There may be
some elaborate solution but standard music notation doesn't reveal it.
Also Karkoff's pieces for 'lute or alt guitar'. There is nothing to
indicate even the tuning of the intended lute, and nothing in the very
abstract music, which provides clues. Peter Soderberg says it's for D
minor tuning but alt guitars are in guitar tuning. Tablature would help
a lot!

Yes, give me modern notation for modern music, every time.

Modern music for lute again. I just saw Stuart also recorded it on his
YouTube channel. He's wright, it's a nice piece. Here am I having a go
with a doggy passing by every once in a while:

On a side note. I think much of modern lute music should be printed in
staff notation, not just tablature. In a Renaissance or Baroque style
we know more or less what the textures are, so we can make educated
guesses about counterpoint, notes to hold, rests and other hidden
treasures in tablature. But modern music can have unfamiliar textures
that remain hidden in tablature but can be easily explained in staff
notation. Just an opinion ...
