Musical Saw
About Me:
 
I was born with Bimanual Synkinesis (BMS) witch affect greatly your ability to play musical instrument. I play the piano but even I am not that bad in piano, I need a huge amount of work to achieve the same performance. This is why I cannot really play the violin or the cello, the action of the right hand will produce movement in the bow

To see me play piano and learn about BMS

If you know about musical saw you certainly noticed that a use a different technique that most of other player. This technique allow me to play both hand close so I don't really use my hand. I definitely developed it as a personal technique related to my BMS, but there is some huge advantage to my technique, maybe someday I will have the chance of seeing somebody playing the saw like me.

Advantage of my technique

By controlling both end of the saw, I can change note very fast.

I bow in front of myself, where I have control, some player play both arm fully extended so they have less control on the bow. Just imagine that you have to thread a needle in the position you are bowing, would it be easy ?

I also can keep my body cantered, some player are so leaned in one side of there body that I have a hard time believing they can be comfortable.

It is easy to play longer saw, I could play 48 inch saw if I would, I just need to vary the height of my seat.

Finaly, I like the fact that I don't use handle at the tip of the saw, I realy only need a saw and a bow to play.

Please feel free to ask me questions or special demand, I am also really open for collaboration video, just ask !
