Does anyone know enough about Dieupart's 6 Suittes de Clavessin to answer this? According to Grove Music, "Roger published them in two versions, for keyboard and for violin or recorder (voice flute and fourth flute) and continuo, but sold them together and advertised them as ‘Mises in Concert’, which suggests they were intended to be played together, though the harmony does not always exactly correspond."

We currently have only tagged them for the instrument + continuo, but the way I read the Grove paragraph (and the title), they should also have a solo harpsichord tag. There are arrangements of them on harpsichord, but perhaps those would be more properly classified as "editions"?
