Extra Information The manuscript dates 1615-18, and the basso continuo part was added later (c1625).

There is no lute part extant. There are 2 copies of complete bass lines marked 'Guida' (they do not have figured bass) but true to the name implication, these parts are bracketed, indicating sections with different choirs.
