I just read that review - the reviewer didn't like the book much...  I read the second chapter a while back - about the wire-strung instruments. There are a number of things he got wrong the one that sticks in my mind is claiming that bandoras and orpharions do not play using the high frets. This is just plan wrong - check the solo bandora pieces in Dd.2.11 of the orpharion pieces in Dd.3.18, or the orpharion solo by Philkington. I suspect that Dolata only looked at Barley and the Morley consort bandora parts before he wrote about the music. It's easier to play on the high frets with the long straigh necks of the bandora and orpharion, than it is on a lute with it's shorter neck.

    Dear All,

     What should we make of the indisputable evidence of unequal
    temperament on fixed-fret citterns? There are many surviving examples,
    and virtually all are in unequal temperament. Modern reproductions with
    equal temperament only play in tune in G major (I once owned one). And
    citterns were frequently played in comforts with lutes.

    Dear Andreas,
    Yes - Otterstedt's very fine review of Dolata's book in Early Music
    (December 2017) does indeed present a very welcome demolition of the
    current modern fashion for promoting meantone tunings on the lute. It
    was also brave since, as she pointed out, 'Not moving with the tide can
    wreck a career, for the pressure to conform in 'early music' is great'
    .
    The knowledge that some unequal tunings can result in sweeter thirds
    has made many make a wholly illogical jump to then asserting that lutes
    must therefore have been fretted in a way to allow this - without any
    proper understanding of the actual historical evidence and of the very
    real practical problems associated with this idea.
    I think the matter is important, so I hope you won't mind me copying
    this reply to the wider list.
    regards,
    Martyn

    Dear Martyn,
    Thanks for your clear words!Here's the review of Annette Otterstedt
    (Lyra viol and Viola da Gamba expert, formerely Institut für
    Musikforschung, Berlin) on Dolata's book.Some very important thoughts,
    I think!
    All the best,
    Andreas
    PS: By the way: Accords nouveaux and not equal temperament is really
    difficult… But if nobody is playing this repertory which was the
    standard repertory for solo literature for at least one generation,
    it's clear that this argument can't be seen from our
    turbo-meantone-fret-movers. And: With the standard double frets, it's
    much more difficult…In short: Let beside all the topics which can be
    dangerous for your hypothesis - and your hypothesis is much more true!

      Thank you for this Ranier.
      I think we need to be very careful before accepting this (and similar
      plugs for non-equal temperament on plucked fretted instruments) as a
      wholly authoritative work on lute temperaments in the 16th & 17th Cs
      and which should, according to the author, be generally adopted in
      modern times.
      The dismissal of equal temperament, despite its clear advocacy in
    many
      early sources (see Lindley et al), seems largely to be founded on a
      prior prejudicial belief by the author that some form of unequal
      (probably meantone) temperament was the norm on lutes.  Of course, a
      meantone tuning, if practicable, does indeed produce some more
      harmonious intervals (thirds in particular) than equal temperament
    and
      for keyboard instruments, where each semitone can be individually
      tempered, such a temperament was and is common. But on fretted
      instruments, where a fret has to serve for both chromatic and
    diatonic
      intervals, this can not always be the case.
      In advocating some general unequal temperament on the lute, the paper
      has recourse to the chimera of 'tastini' (and/or constant fret
      adjustments) which not only fail to be seen in the overwhelming
      majority of early representations, but were actively disparaged at
    the
      time (eg Galilei). The problems of tempering any fretted instrument
    are
      also evidenced very graphically in General Thompson's 1829 proposal
    for
      an enharmonic guitar (also one by Lacote) requiring around 300
      different fret positions on the fingerboard - which then had to be
      reset on change of key.....  Similarly the idea that logarithms were
      absolutely necessary before the calculation of equal intervals to any
      reasonable degree of accuracy is simply not the case.
      Failure to consider temperament on similar plucked fretted
    instruments
      also presents potential bias in the paper. For example the use of
      sliding chord shapes on the early guitar (and to some extent the
      theorbo) necessarily requires a fretting pattern close to equal
      temperament. Similarly the focus on the 'old' lute tuning, ignores
    the
      special considerations which must be made for the new lute tunings
      (especially the Dm tuning) which require very good unison tuning to
    the
      next higher open course on three adjacent frets (third, fourth and
      fifth) - as frequently found in compositions for these instruments.
      No doubt in practice some fret adjustment may well have been made to
      sweeten the most awkward intervals in a particular piece or set/suite
      (for example to temper some common thirds) but to present this sort
    of
      thing as a proven case for the use of a formal general meantone
      temperament is, I suggest, misleading.
      Nevertheless, the paper does include some helpful information as well
      as another personal perspective. It is yet another useful addition to
      the expanding number of views about lute temperament, but one which I
      think needs to be itself tempered by a degree of healthy but positive
      scepticism..........
      regards,
      Martyn
