I'd vote instead for left hand.
To me 'Mano di sotto' is used to say 'Mano sotto lo strumento', that is
hand below the instrument. And he's saying on the Tiorba one uses this
hand to make trilli and accenti muti: you do these with the left hand.
I think Accenti muti are something like appoggiatura or legatura. When
you tie two or more notes with the left hand fingers without touching
the string with the right hand fingers. And it is something that can go
together with trilli: con trilli et accenti muti.
