I am wandering about the use of vibrato - as well as (Segovian) pushing strings away - on baroque lute in e.g. the Weiss period. Sure Weiss indicated explicit at certain passages the use of vibrato, but how much more was it in use? When playing Weiss' music more often you get the 'inner feeling' to 'vibrate' at certain spots, etc. In "Performance on Lute, Guitar and Vihuela" (ISBN 0-521-45528-6) I can't find any directions/explanations on this matter. Impressions on this aspect are very welcome.
