Jose.........I'm sure Antonina has excellent teachers who are truly critically helpful, so I believe we should just watch and listen and enjoy her without waxing overly critical i n the guise of "helpfulness". She is an excellent guitarist right now and will only get better over the years. Let's just key in on the music and appreciate!
My 2 cents - to hell with making it sound like a lute - play it for the modern guitar. The changes of tempo are surprising and engaging - the piece seems to require it. How would Dowland himself have thought of this piece? Joy and spontaneitiy, I think - go for it!
Superb! I can't believe people are critical of the playing (in the guise of 'being helpful'). To hell with you youtube critics- post your own recording of this piece.
It's a damn hard piece. My hat is off to you, and anyone who plays it well.
I think if you keep at it it will get even better...I know you must have put in a lot of work as it's a hard piece. Pieces like this take years to mature so please keep it in your repertoire (and memorize it as that will help a lot).
At times I think it would help to play back by the bridge for some parts with the rh for additional color.
Beautiful tone and you have a good concept of the piece, but the tempo is very inconsistent, as if you're slowing down when you get to the harder parts. Try to keep it steady and you'll have an excellent version of this!
You play beautifully. I think that you should have kept the tempo even the whole song as opposed to gradually speeding up. Also, maybe a little less staccato in certain parts. Great job though, it's my favorite piece to play.

RH hand is too heavy at times for a lute piece.

I like how much it sounds like a lute or a baroque guitar. Lovely! Way to capture the sound.
