    I think this exact instrument, or an exact copy, is at display at morrey's music store. I recently saw it, and thought it was pretty cool.

    Great play! Did you use a violin or a viola bow?

    • @thisisvioladamore
      @thisisvioladamore  2 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      Actually I don't recognize the bow I was using in the video. It looks like a modern bow (I don't own any of those) so I must have borrowed it from Martin Biller, in whose shop I made this clip. For what it is worth, a violin bow is fine for the top 5 strings of the viola d'amore, but for the lowest d and A, it is nice to have a bit more weight. My own viola d'amore bow weighs 65 grams.

      @ApplepieFTW 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@thisisvioladamore thanks for the reply! how mysterious, haha. If/when I buy one, that's good to know, since I own a well made viola bow already. Or look perhaps a somewhat heavier weight baroque violin bow (the differences between the two for baroque bows are smaller anyway, from what I gather). Thanks!

    What how many strings dose that fiddle have 12? Why would you ever need more than 8, or 4 for that matter, lol, Bach's 5 string cello comes to mind... It is an instrument to make chords sing though. Thank you for sharing it with us.

    • @MMABreakdowns
      @MMABreakdowns 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      7 strings on top and another 7 underneath that helps create resonance. The design was to help deal with intonation issues.
      Some believe it had a lot of middle eastern influence as it shares a similar design to some of the instruments over there.

    Very nice viola. Where can we get one of these? I see some on ebay from China. Is that where everyone is getting theirs? It's not cheap and I don't want to waste money on something defective.

      This is an interesting question. I'm wondering how to answer it. Why does the violin have four strings?

    • @patriciajrs46
      @patriciajrs46 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@thisisvioladamore Well. It's a matter of choice of tone , Iguess. There are violins that have 5 strings with the 5th tuning peg on the side of the neck. The vielle. So maybe those extra strings are for harmonics? My bother and Dad used to play a 12 string guitar. Daddy said they were for harmony. I know. I answered myself.
