About constructive critical commentary, as a "multi" Youtube recording luteninst, I know very well what's wrong in my videos, I'm working very hard to try do do better, and of course I accept criticism but very often I know the "could be better" points before being told by someone, and what I would need in fact is a (or many...) good master class(es) with some of the lute gods as Paul, Bob, Ron or Nigel (sorry I miss some other names but... List is long) So I don't wait any technical comment, but I'm always glad to answer to kind words people would spend time to write, even if it is not "useful" for my lute technic... And I'm afraid critical commentary sometimes posted are often not constructive, but acerb (then I'm sorry but I remove them at once ! Lol) So I'm not sure Youtube is the place for constructive commentary, but more for sharing music we love without pretention (I hope for my sake) I just got today a beautiful theorbo made by Didier Jarny, a small instrument for solo music (70cm/120cm) so now working on some Kapsberger's Canarios, and it is great fun !

Franz's point concerning the absence of constructive critical commentary may be pertinent. Since I'm working on Renaissance lute only, and am not familiar with Baroque lute literature or technique, I'll leave it to other Baroque players to consider Franz's point.
