I usually use a combination of carefully peeled fingers throat and cone
with a topuch of air variation depending on the volume and duration of the
glis...
I'm not sayinf that's what the experts would reccomend... I'm only a Jazz
player... who jams on Back and Mozart.. I can play the Dvorak Violin
Concerto in A Minor 28vb (but only the solo violin part)... but that's the
extent of my jam-ability

This is not a commercial. I am tyrying to get rid of all this
stuff so I can get back to the woodshed sans bill collector!

There is a difference between "dealers" and musicians that love not only
the sound of music but the tools which make it possible for people to play
music. It's important to set things free so they may ultimately find their
way to their intended parties so we can go zen and get on with our
practice and play.

See you at the gig!
