   • 2003, Edward L. Kottick, A History of the Harpsichord, page 200:

     A group of composers, variously known as the madrigalists, the lutenists, or the virginalists (depending on the medium for which they were writing), produced vast quantities of attractive music, mostly for amateur consumption.

   • 2009 January 20, Allan Kozinn, “Shafts of Sun in Winter From the Italian Baroque”, in The New York Times‎:

     And the cello concerto was strikingly different on Sunday: at Weill, the ensemble included two violinists and one violist, cellist, bassist and lutenist, but on Sunday four more violinists, a second violist and a harpsichordist were added to give the ripieno sections of the fast movements a heftier punch than the smaller group delivered.
