As a German, the naming of this instrument is also interesting:
- I guess Bach would have called it Lautenwerck, but in modern German spelling the "ck" has been dropped, so it should be spelled Lautenwerk (even the author used it three times in the article).
- I initially thought this was about a part of an organ, because that's the only "werk" I was aware of in connection with a musical instrument...
