Perhaps one day someone will publish them this way for the relatively unskilled lutenist I'm not a terribly skilled lutenist, but the one thing I do really well is intabulations, mostly of the lower lines of chansons and madrigals. Send me the music and I'll have a go at it. My lute tablature is hand written but very legible, and my parts are written to be playable by an unskilled lutenist like myself.

Yeah for the ladies. This sentence from your link caught my attention. Ippolito Fiorini was the maestro di capella, in charge of the entire court's musical activities.[14] In addition to his duties to the overall court, he accompanied the concerto on the lute.

Dear Helen, what about the "Concerto delle donne" of Ferrara? See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concerto_delle_donne For example Luzzaschi wrote a book of madrigals for one, two, and three sopranos with keyboard accompaniment, published in 1601. Transforming the keyboard acc (freely) to lute should not be too complicated. Hope this gave some ideas!

You can, however, easily find intabulations of whole madrigals in many 16th century prints. Madrigals with 3 to 4 female voice is another cup of tea, I'd say. You will perhaps want to look up some five- or six-part madrigals, which often have SSAT(T)B. But I'm not aware of madrigals for up to 4 female voice, exclusively.
