When playing a single line with t-i, it is clear that the thumb finishes its stroke under the first finger. But not so clear to me is the position of the thumb relative to the second finger when two note chords are interspersed with the single line. Does the thumb finish its stroke under the second finger, or in line with - perhaps touching - the end of the first finger?
Relevant here, I guess, is the position of the thumb and second finger at the start of the two note chord. Are they in opposition, or is the second finger stretched out beyond the thumb, so that it strikes its string at a point farther from the bridge than the thumb strikes its string? (For lutenists the phrase "rule of thumb" takes on a new meaning!). Thanks, Ned To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html
