It's not my rationale! I prefer the msuic without the bourdon on the 5th
course.
I've just been listening to the same suite on the CD which Lex made in
1994 - with the "French" tuning. Much better in every way.

I'm fine about the 4th but I never missed one on the 5th in Bartolotti's
second book (that's perhaps why I don't hear it ...), quite the opposite
in fact.
Anyway, what's your rationale for having a bourdon on the 5th course in
this music?

Well - there are definitely bourdons on both the 4th and 5th courses.
Whether you need them or not is another matter.

Yes, there is a little campanella near the end. I don't think there is
a bourdon (if there is I can't hear it); and it's not really necessary
for the music.

It's great to see these pieces being played. In the past I've
struggled - without much success - with the Em Prelude and Allemande.
(Is there an extra little campanella just near the end of the Prelude?)
I should be able to hear, but does the fifth have a bourdon?
It's always extremely interesting to see a professional perform a piece
as well as play the music.
