The title page to the 1613 collection says "Per sonar due Viole da braccio, & un Chittarone, o altro stromento simile. However, the canto primo part is in G clef, and the canto secondo part is in C clef, which rules out violas. String instruments seem to be a preference so consequently, this is tagged for viols, violins, or other soprano instruments.
