It would be impossible to catalogue all recordings of lute music, as more recordings appear on the internet every day, on Youtube, Amazon, Apple iTunes, Napster, Spotify, Rhapsody and other similar websites, and older CD recordings are digitised. Many recordings can be found using general search engines, by searching for artist, composer, or name of recording.
New release listings in the lute society magazines listed under academic journals may serve as a proxy lute discography.
However, Le Luth Dore intends to compile a complete discography of all lute music CDs released to date; www.leluthdore.com/
Allmusic search engine, which can be used to search for lute recordings: www.allmusic.com/search/all/lute
Fnac search engine, which can be used to search for lute recordings: www.fnac.com/
