Just wanted to send my kudos for playing this beautiful instrument. It should be used far more often. Even in modern music.

Yes, the bass viol is the solo member of the viol family. They're playing a 7 string bass aka French bass - it has a low A string. Tuning form the bottom will be ADGCEAD.
Some fun with a viol consort playing English music by Holborne - I have the music for some of Holborne's pieces and the Café Sax group plays one of them.
