notes
The piece is only known from the transcription for lute by De Visée (in F-B ms. 279152, ms. Vaudry de Saizenay, p. 62). The title of this version "La Venetienne de Mr Fourcroy, mise par Mr de Visée" and comparison with the transcription of the "Muzette" (see), included in the same manuscript, suggest the existence of an original version for viola da gamba solo or with bass.
