  • Vakker! Takk for at du viser oss denne ^^

  • må være den første som ikke like

  • @RoraTailor I think you mean the "bridge" & not the entire violin, for you can't custom-make a Strad. Anyway, the aspect of Ole Bull playing on 4 strings at once is interesting. Other than broken chords played simultaneously, I wonder where he applied such as technique. Any idea as to what music he might have used them with?

    For a violinist to remain a legend so long without having no recordings to judge him by is truly amazing.

  • @unclejuniorsoprano Actually, he had his violin custom designed, so that he could play all four strings simultaneously! It became what is now known as a "hardingfele", after a place in Norway named "Hardanger". "Fele" is Norwegian for violin.

  • Another interesting fact about Ole Bull is that he played with a nearly flat bridge so that he could play cords better. I have a very good book, "Famous Violinists of To-Day and Yesterday" by Henry C. Lahee that devotes a long chapter to Ole Bull. He's one of those violinists who remains a great mystery.

  • Den fineste innspillingen jeg har hørt.

  • Ole Bull practiced 12 hours a day I have heard.

  • Music from heaven!
