Just wanted to thank you for making that bow I recently bought! I really don’t think I would have had as much fun or played as well on my Mozart concerto a couple of weeks ago without it! It’s the first transitional bow I’ve ever had that really really feels comfortable.

As early music ideas are becoming more mainstream, I am using your bow more often in the orchestra with my modern violin. In particular, last week for Beethoven #3 and this week for Beethoven #5! As conductors are taking Beethoven’s audacious tempo markings more literally, your bow allows me to play the fleet tempi with ease. Also terrific for later Baroque work, Mozart Opera, and Oratorios. It has literally been a career saver.
Whenever I can, I encourage colleagues to try my bow, to show them how they can maximize their efforts while protecting their arm.
