doesn't happen to often, I'm afraid). But why the real baroque lute is
such a black sheep, why such a distaste, reluctance or even aversion? Why
the few maniacs only use baroque lute tuning for a continuo, in the age
the instrument was born and used?
I am for one emphatically against such usage, even though I occasionally do
that against my principles, in front of people.
If a baroque lute is audible in an instrumental ensemble- it is likely
because it either played a sour note or was late on the entry.....
I do like accompanying a singer though.

Here I see most plainly how the history is selectively used, not excluding
HIP. Quite intriguing, isn't it?
