Up-bow Staccato.

[stephen redrobe]

Yeah, dream on.

Bragging Sons

Three boys are in the schoolyard bragging about their fathers. The first boy says, "My Dad scribbles a few words on a piece of paper, he calls it a poem, they give him $50."

The second boy says, "That's nothing. My Dad scribbles a few words on a piece of paper, he calls it a song, they give him $100." The third boy says, "I got you both beat.

My Dad scribbles a few words on a piece of paper, he calls it a sermon. And it takes eight people to collect all the money!"

You're alive! Thanks for the tips on staccato.

[stephen redrobe]

You're most welcome

[iupviolin]

...and how is this related to up bow staccato?

[stephen redrobe]

Can you not read between the lines?.

[Marie Brown]

Hi, Fitz! Are you referring to Sweet Hora Prayer Staccato? Dinicutaneous.

[iupviolin]

Can you read?

In reply to:

Yeah, dream on.

That was in response to the title. Hence, no staccato talk.

[iupviolin]

yeah, but this is the fingerboard...you know, its supposed to be about violin related discussion...

[Carlo_jsb]

Ignore them, it won't do any good. I have learnt through bitter experience not to be too honest or say anything which you yourself would consider sensible.

Carlo.

[iupviolin]

why is that?

[Carlo_jsb]

I was just being bitter, but I meant that there is little point trying to get the more assertive personalities on Maestronet to act like you think we all should.

Carlo.

[iupviolin]

hey, its not about how "I" think they should act. There are rules on this board and the rules need to be followed.

[SteveLaBonne]

Then why aren't you following the rule about keeping posts on-topic?

[iupviolin]

Because I use the wrist staccato.

[Alistair]

lol, down-bow staccato is what always buggered me up O.o

[iupviolin]

I'm going to spend the entire summer learning down bow staccato!

[Carlo_jsb]

When I say "you", I don't mean "you" specifically, but people in general. OK there are rules, but I believe in everyone having some form of social responsibility, especially if admin have allowed this thread anyway.

Never mind, it's not important.

Carlo.

Then there's Horus Toccata, for left-handed organist.

It's 60 m long.

[MsMazas]

That's what I spent last summer doing. Ugggggg....

"Now Rachel, pretend like you're pouring a row of shot glasses. Oh wait, you're not old enough to know.." --Ms Carman

Yup, classic. I hate down bow staccato, and will always hate it. I know how to do it, but I do everything to get away from it. Up bow staccato, now that's what I'm talkin about!
