I am kind of allergic only of two points in this longish essay: 1) "show to the italians you can do better": To me this sounds nationalistic, there is a sound of "ethnic cleansing". 2) "historically more accurate": Sounds to me as "authenticity" - as used some decades ago, and rejected one decade later... I totally agree with David T's comments on the "mistakes" and better alternatives, but I shudder when reading igor721's "early music (nearly) facism(?)". All the best, Arto To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html
