What Does NOT Matter when You Select a Violin or Viola Bow

Did you know that finding your ideal bow is even more difficult then finding your ideal violin or viola?

With your ideal bow you can achieve more musically and technically.

The more your playing improves, the more you will demand from your bow.

What is NOT important when looking for a bow?


  • price

  • origin

  • color

  • place

  • your teacher's opinion (in some cases)

  • plating/assembly


Watch this video in which I reveal what does NOT matter when you select a bow.

Is this video useful to you? Please let me know in the comments!

Love,

Zlata
