There is a recent critical edition:
Title L'Organo suonarino: (Venezia 1605)
Volume 31 of Tastata. Studi e documenti
Author Adriano Banchieri
Editor Edoardo Bellotti
Publisher Il Levante, 2014
ISBN 8895203445, 9788895203447
Length 164 pages
The editor says-
Although l’Organo Suonarino (1605) is cited extensively in the scholarly
literature on organ and liturgical practice in the 17th century – and
has been the subject of several dissertations – the lack of a modern
critical edition has prevented the knowledge and the practical use of
this source of considerable historical and pedagogical importance. The
new critical edition I published seeks to bring this remarkable book to
a wider musical community. The original Italian text has been completely
translated into English. Here we find not only an incredible amount of
information about liturgical practice and organ playing in the early
17th century, together with a large collection of versetti and of pieces
for the Catholic service, but also a powerful teaching tool delivering
the “tricks of the trade” for the organist: how to accompany the
plainchant, improvise verses and compose pieces with all the skills of
the art of counterpoint.
