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'.

No matter how well researched, our relationship with the performance of music from the past will always be partially speculative. At any rate, we're all artists working in the 21st century and I believe the degree to which the performer chooses to engage with what is understood about performance practice of the past is just another facet of that person's total aesthetic presentation. As for Thomas, he's clearly very talented and I can enjoy his playing. Having said that, the hugely arbitrary way in which HIPness is used as a critical litmus test for career success annoys me to no end. Some performers are granted favored status and can do no wrong. 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.

[BAROQUE-LUTE] Re: thumb in or out???
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.
