†) “Indeed, the Menuet on page 63 is by Visée (1686, p.16), and the Vilanelle on page 22 is very similar to one of his (F-Pn Rés. F. 844, p. 186). ... it is entirely possible that these two pieces were mistakenly attributed to Le Cocq by Castillon ...” (Tyler/Sparks: The Guitar and its Music: From the Renaissance to the Classical Era, p. 130)
