Advanced Bowing Techniques

Bowing Technique #1

Bowing Technique #2 (about halfway through)

My teacher demonstrated technique #2 to me and the student following after me in lessons tonight (minus the bow slap on the back of the instrument).

This was following some of the most unusal ways to contrive a duet I've seen: from Mozarts's "Table Music for Two", Kruetzer No. 10 played like a round or cannon, to Bach's 5th Symphony 2nd mvnt playing two themes at once.

I never know just what I might learn at a lesson!

Wow. Almost speechless.

#1 gives new meaning to the electric toothbrush.

#2...just, wow.
