no, baroque lute requires a lot less physical labor: fewer notes, more space
between them.

Hi, Sterling and Ed,
Part of me wants to believe you when you say baroque lute is easier, and I
do
recall having read that...the chords do seem easier than chord fingerings
in
renaissance tuning. However, part of me is wondering if you are kidding
me? :-)
If you are, I think it's great and I don't mind a bit...
Warm regards,
Brent

You couldn't get better encouragement than from Mace. He tells how
'easy' the Baroque lute is compared to those of the past.
Good luck.
Mace is absolutely right about this. Much easier....
