And the thumb wanders inside the fingers (e.g., 0:58, 6:58).  

I suppose whoever just wrote that he didn’t want to listen to baroque lute 
players who use thumb-in can skip those notes.

Sooner or later these discussions about thumb-in/out start sounding like the 
Lilliputians debating which which end of the egg to suck.

   Thomas is getting all the gigs at the moment, and rightly so, despite
   his non-hip choices. So what's your point?

   David - not fighting anyone in this exchange, just observing players
   and audiences making their own choices, neither based on anything the
   hip-police is describing as âcurrently correct'.

Well, the performer may do as he likes in regard to technique and

for Thomas, he's clearly very talented and I can enjoy his
 playing.
Having said that, the hugely arbitrary way in which HIPness is

 Some

 Meanwhile,
other equally fantastic players are lambasted and marginalized
 for
unpopular choices that are perfectly justifiable - sometimes even
mandated - in period sources. To put it another way: the same
 handful
of folks keep getting all the gigs because people who know better
 keep
hiring them. That's not cool. I think there's room for a variety
 of
approaches, but that's not what we get.

 Well. Single strung lute. Rather special right hand technique with
 thumb in, but the rest of the fingers employed more like a
 guitarist. I would say it was neither, nor really. To me, his right
 hand did not give a "relaxed" impression. But musically, he played
 the bwv 995 suite (the one most accessible to plucked instruments)
 well, albeit with some glitches and rattles. I assume, that one will
 find a great number of different styles and personal quirks among
 players when it comes to TI or TO and combinations thereof,
 depending on the instrument, mensur, how it is strung, holding,
 string material, nail size a.s.o.
