Dear Arthur,

Eitner was wrong. At least three part books have survived and are on-line.

It contains Dowland concordances, pieces stolen form Terpsichore and other well 
known music.

In the table of contents he claims

"Sequuntur cantiones incertorum autorum, quibus voces intermediae ab authore huius 
operis adiectae sunt."
Which implies that he at least composed additional voices for some pieces.
Therefore he cannot have been a mere publisher.

Apart from these additional voices the book does not seem to contain any music 
composed by Klosmann(?).

partbook only.  Eitner1622b.  I couldn't find it in RISM online or in Recueils 
imprimés (1960).

Dear lute netters,

does anybody know anything about Caspar Klosmann and/or his "Amoenitatum musicalium 
hortulus..." published in 1622?

There is almost nothing on the Internet and even nothing in Jstor.
