I heard _Berlin Bossa_ on a cable TV music channel. It has a riff that I believe I heard on a Baroque or Classical lute. Can anyone help me out? Thanks. ---

It’s the Bourree from Bach’s Lute Suite in E Minor, BWV 996, also the basis of Jethro Tull’s “Bouree.” [![]( " - YouTube") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZrnRL5i7CZ0) ---
