    0:20 - ricochet
    0:56 - détaché
    1:51 - spiccato sautillé
    2:24 - tremolo
    3:00 - ponticello
    3:29 - col legno
    3:52 - collé
    4:28 - martelé
    5:25 - staccato
    6:02 - legato
    that's not all types of bow strokes, but these are basic.

    😲 I don't know anything about violin, but, especially for this to only be an introduction & demonstration, I'm blown away at the skill. How does this have a single dislike... Can't please everyone. I'm hoping there are subsequent parts; I'm hoping to hear ALL of the string articulations.

  • @lucanesterenko8724
    @lucanesterenko8724 Před 4 lety +3

    Awesome video! There's one thing I'd like to point out tough as there's quite some confusion around it (here and in other videos on the internet), spiccato and sautillé are DIFFERENT techniques, in spiccato the bow bounces leaving the strings while in sautillé it's just the wood that is bouncing while the hairs remain mostly adherent to the strings, the way of playing them is therefore different, while spiccato is usually played in correspondence of the balance point of the bow to get an optimal sautillé you have to go a bit higher, near the middle of the bow.

  • @dennismichaels1205
    @dennismichaels1205 Před 4 lety +10

    All of the Players on the CZcams videos who are demonstrating the different types of bowing techniques, never show the
    written manuscript, and what these techniques actually LOOK like on the music. For example, if detache is what the composer wanted,
    is the term written on the music, or is it just assumed that technique without the phrase markings? This information would be helpful
    for all beginners and students.

  • @XeeGen
    @XeeGen Před 5 lety +10

    So I was watching an anime called Nodame Cantabile and a character said, the concertmaster decides on the bowing. Does that mean that the concertmaster decides on which bow stroke technique is used for specific sections?

    • @JohnsonString
      @JohnsonString  Před 5 lety +7

      Hello XeeGen! Yes, the concertmaster decides on bowings. The conductor determines what kind of sound they are looking for, and will usually work with concert master or section leaders to determine which stroke will accomplish this.

    I’m trying to get all the articulations setup in my string libraries for composing on my DAW’s. I intend to print out my compositions for a live orchestra. I started on piano at 5, and added brass & guitar at a young age, but strings are my passion! And I’m still learning now that I have advanced tools. 😎🎹🎸🎺🎻🎤

    • @retrops4261
      @retrops4261 Před 6 lety

      Effortlessness is the correct word, it means without tension as most things on violin require. Absolute control as gained by learning how to do a given technique without tension (thus it looks "effortless" to execute it!

  • @utyouba
    @utyouba Před 5 lety

    Thank you so much for this overview. I once heard somewhere online - most likely on CZcams - a distinctive and refreshingly different orchestral arrangement of Pachelbel's Canon in D Major where all the strings - Violins and the Cellos - really aggressively "attacked" the beinning of each stroke, and the pizzicatos were also really accentuated. Sadly, I've never been able to find it again. Could such strokes have been Martelé/Collé and is there a name for a more "aggressive" start to a Martelé stroke ? I would love to hear that version again, and perhaps identifying the style could help to track it down. Can anyone suggest similar versions please ?
