Violin in play

The main job of the arm is to ensure that the bow remains as upright as possible, without any lateral deviation, so as to form and maintain a right angle with respect to the vibrating string. In order to achieve this, the hand holds the bow near the frog, and the index and second and third fingers rest on the stick while the thumb presses on the underside of the frog. The little finger is slightly spaced from the ring finger, which is slightly curved. In this position all the finger joints are ready to balance and compensate the larger arm movements; the palm of the hand is almost parallel to the stick. The speed of the bow is essential for the dynamics of the sound. The faster the bow, the louder the sound. Thus subdividing the bow plays a major role in violin technique, and in the manner of striking the string with the bow lies every violinist’s capital means of expression. The passages between two neighouring strings are carried out by raising or lowering the wrist. The movement of the hand in rubbing the bow on the string, does not follow a straight line, but rather a horizontal figure eight; thus there is more pressure on the bow at the head than at the frog. The movement that leads from the frog to the head is designated by the term “pull” and the contrary movement, from the head to the frog, by the term “push”.

Free Music For My iPod

Jane got me a new iPod for our anniversary, and it’s really nice. I put my whole CD collection on it so far and it’s still not even half full. I’ve been looking all over on the Web for free music, and found a lot of good sites. I can’t really afford to go out and buy a bunch more CDs right now.

A lot of the bands on MySpace will let you download their songs for free. I’ve been finding at least a few every day to download. I’m also gonna hook up my old turntable to the computer so I can record some of my vinyl. No sense in buying the CDs when I’ve already got the albums.

Interested in Taking a Course at a Thai Culinary School

Convincing Someone to Fulfill Their Dreams

I have this friend that loves to cook all the time.  She has a large family and it seems she’s always in the kitchen when I call or come over.  When anyone has any questions, she’s the one everyone calls for quick answers.  There have been so many people that have told her that she should look into culinary school programs for herself so that she can make a living at what she loves.  She said that she’s thought about it, but didn’t think she could make it through.  I started helping her look and we found a good school close to home and next semester, she’s going.   

Fireflies and Slumber

Last evening was the nicest time I had all week long. After supper, we went outside for awhile so Catty could catch fireflies. She gets so excited. It’s one of the pleasures of my life just to watch her run around.

Afterward, we came inside and I was watching a concert that I’d recorded. She crawled up on my lap and was asleep in about 10 minutes. Complete serenity…

This morning it’s back to the grind, scouring the Web for free music videos for the show (while Catty’s still snoozing). Seems like it never lets up with our production schedule. Finding a lot of great tunes though.

A barbed wire tattoo

I know it may be a little clichéd, but I am really thinking about getting a barbed wire tattoo.  I have always wanted a tattoo, but I don’t want a huge image on my body.  I think a barbed wire tattoo around my upper arm would look good.  It will be easy to cover up for my job and any events that it would not be kosher to have a tattoo on display.  I a lot of my friends say barbed wire tattoos are very uncool these days, but I like them. Maybe I will start the trend of bringing them back.
