Good question--I have a hard time getting my ring finger working well,
especially switching between single-note runs and four-note chords. I
can't separate it far enough from my pinky. How were chords of more
than three notes played without ring finger in thumb-in play?

Dear all,
first of all I'd like to express my sincerest gratitude towards Wayne
for creating this great forum! Unfortunately I became only a member a
few years ago, but still I enjoyed much of the discussions here! I
hope,
that the list will continue also after Wayne's retirement!
The actual reason for writing is this time about the use of the
ringfinger of the right hand in 16th/early 17th century lute music.
What
do we know about it? When did lute players start to use it? It would be
great to collect some sources, with your generous help! Also ideas for
modern literature is appreciated!
Have a nice sunday and enjoy lute playing
Yuval
