The archlute or theorbo were common >bass continuo instruments and thus were often paired with a harpsichord. Interesting. I've never heard them on any recordings (e.g., Hogwood's). It's almost always either 'cello, v.d.gamba, or occasionally bass. And I have, come to think of it, heard bassoon used as the bass of a continuo at least once. Can you point me to some recordings of archlute used as the bass of a continuo?
