the conflict?? Concerning staff notation: there are extremely rare
examples of lute parts in staff notation (Fasch's concerto?, and not
sure it's for D min tuning) .
Indeed we can't be sure about lute parts in notation, for which
instrument they had been meant. But possibly the composers there hadn't
our problem, that it should be for one very special instrument.
There are some examples - I'm really not sure, how many lute parts in
notation we have - where for sure the d-minor lute was meant:
Probably the Krebs concertos had been written in notation first, as we
have two different parts of it (probably intabulations).
Conti wrote some Cantatas, where the French lute is obligato. It is
written in notation and normally is more or less a line of melody, as it
is also meant for violin in some cases.
One could argue, that we don't know, for which instrument it is thougth.
But! There is one manuscript/print of it - I'm not sure, because I only
have some pages of it (there is a facsimile by SPES), where we have
notation and tablature for baroque lute. The interesting thing is, that
the lute plays this melody and the bass. So I'm pretty sure, this was
common practice with the single line melodies for lute, that in most
times are written directly over the bass line.
