This bowing is played badly on the violin more often than any other. It demands constant rapid changing and, as most pupils play it, the legato quality is noticeably absent. Too much emphasis cannot be laid on the truth that the 'singing stroke' should be employed for all bowings, long or short.
Often pupils who play quite well show a want of true legato quality in their tone, because there is no connection between their bowing in rapid work. "Individual bowings should always be practiced separately.
George's Hall. It was you that drove me into this marriage. God knows, I admit I was wrong, but I made the mistake in a frantic desire for fresh air, for some other atmosphere than the stuffy gloom of churches and seminaries and colleges. What do I care for that miserable little college on the hill, full of your good little boys with their churchly conceits and bowings and deadness?
The elaborate woodwork of the screen, the rich copes of the chaplain, the silver candlesticks, the credence table, the organ and the choir, the stately ritual, the bowings at the sacred name, the genuflexions to the altar made the chapel at last such a model of worship as Laud desired. If he could not exact an equal pomp of devotion in other quarters, he exacted as much as he could.
In fast bowings, for instance, I make three color distinctions or rather sound distinctions. In reply to another question, Mr. Letz added: "Great violin playing is great violin playing, irrespective of school or nationality.

If it be essentially and absolutely necessary to choose between the two, we are inclined to agree with Mrs.
Chinese philosophers have fully recognized in their writings that ceremonies and salutations and bowings and scrapings and rules of precedence and rules of the road are not of any real value when considered apart from the conditions with which they are usually associated; at the same time they argue that without such conventional restraints, nothing but confusion would result.
But although the boy was bold and brave, this little princess always had the mastery of him, not because she was a princess and heir to the throne of Egypt for all the high titles they gave her fell idly on her ears, nor did she think anything of the bowings of courtiers and of priests but from some strength within herself.
Yet this is wrong for the player holds his bow at the finger-tips, that terminal point of the fingers where the tactile nerves are most highly developed, and where their direct contact with the bow makes possible the greatest variety of dynamic effect, and also allows the development of far greater speed in short bowings.
He brought out a copy of his "Exercises" and showed me their plan. "Here, for instance, I have scales, trills, arpeggios all in the same study, and the study is conceived as a musical composition instead of a technical formula. This is a study in finger position, with all possible bowings.
