Vibrato goes in the direction of gravity... Cello/Bass will initially fall forward and then rebound to center; Violin/Viola, the hand will fall back and then rebound to center (hence Rolland's observation of Starker's motion). I remember many discussions that I also had with Mr. Rolland about this very thing, although I was but a high school student and at the time--full of myself; the "know-it-all." But, as I've lived on, I am convinced that shoulder instruments' instinct is opposite of that of floor instruments' instincts simply because the direction of gravity.
