Re: My Favorite Logature's a Hairtie

You know how Chinese sticky rice dumplings are wrapped in bamboo leaves and are also tied by a thin string? Well I got some of the string to use as ligature. These string are much thinner than the string I have tried before, and certainly thinner than shoelace. Didn't think it was going to work since I thought Legere's would be too slippery. But it turns out it worked out super well! The really high altissimo notes,and I mean double C (C7) and above, popped out slightly easier and articulation was better. But I felt it made my sound less focused than my Rovner Platinum ligature.
