09Sep24: Edited the first 50 pieces from CZ-Pnm:West Bohemian Museum ms. XXIII.F.174:Mikulâš Schmall Lute Book, a German tab source with mostly high quality stuff, including some very striking and rather virtuosic passamezzos toward the end.

Earlier in the book, many of the pieces are written in such a rhythmically haphazard fashion that it was difficult, and in some cases impossible, to suss them out. Where there would have been too many footnotes, I appended a literally accurate rendition of the original in French tab and prepended an edited edition without footnotes. Where I could not figure out the piece at all, I simply supplied an accurate rendition of the original.
