It is historically accurate. Do a Youtube search on Paul O'Dette. He plays the same way. Also look at some historical paintings and you will say it is the way Lute players are portrayed as they play.

Some even use the pinky for stability and put it on the soundboard. There's a discussion as well when it comes to (not) using nails too. About the performance: well done, although I think I would play it faster... A lute is not a guitar for sure… and yes, that right hand technique is pretty common.

He's coming at the strings from a very oblique angle, and his thumb actually finishes inside of his fingers, rather outside, as we're taught. Is this just a lute thing?
