Katzensilber

This was filmed by my friend Natasa in Krems last july (2009). The piece is called "Katzensilber", "argentine mica" in english, a miniral I liked very much as a child.

I'm wondering, what you use to cover your cylinder? Sound is sooooo smooth...

[MatthiasLoibner]

@Izeg0re what do you mean by covering the cylinder?

@MatthiasLoibner You rotate handle to make sounds, right?

That handle is connected to cylynder (sorry, can't find right word for it), which touches strings. Usually this cylinder is covered by rosin, but sound is sharp because of it... So, are you using rosin, or something else?

Or it's some electronic device, which makes sound smooth?

Just plain awesome - wouldn't expect anything less!

Matthias your supposed to "crank" the instrument. You make me crazy with how good you are, and now you aren't even cranking the instrument. I hope that someday we can get you back to California to teach a class.

Just amazing.
