I think that an English translation of Banchieri's instructions can be found
in the book Barbara Sachs and Barry Ife, "Anthology of Early Keyboard
Methods", Gamut Publications Ltd, 1981. It contains exerpts from work by
Diruta, De Santa Maria, Banchieri and others. The instructions by
Banchieri on fingerings cover 3 pages.
i am not sure if the book is still commercially available.
It can be found perhaps in a library.
