![]() (If any of this is not clear from the animation, compare with the stills at the foot of the page.) This point, it catches on the bow again, static friction Same speed and in the same direction as the bow. The end of the "slip" phase, it is going at about the To the near end of the string and reflected back. Momentum carries it on until eventually it stops and Stop when it gets to the straight position because its (that are not easy to learn!), it breaks free of theīow and then slides past it easily with very littleįriction, thanks to the low kinetic friction. When the kink returns to meet theĬontact point, the tension in the string now acts to In the string travels along the string and reflectsĪt the fixed end. The string ("stick" in the animation) and for a while With high static friction, the bow tends to stick to See the series of graphics at the foot of the page. If your browser doesn't support this animation, There are also many complicating factors (including one due to torsional waves.) The wave speed in the string has been reduced to make the motion visible. Of the string's motion has been magnified, and (Note that, in the animation below, the vertical scale Is high, while that of sliding friction is very low. ![]() The two conditions: the coefficient of static friction Puts rosin on the bow to give a big difference between It isĪlso true of the string and the bow, and the player Static friction (sticking) is greater than kinetic friction It is to get it moving in the first place. You will know that it is easier to keep it moving than To slide a heavy object such as a piece of furniture, Some interesting properties of friction, the force that The action of the bow which drives the strings is a These effects give the modern bow a greater range of loudness. Another effect of the modern (Tourte) bow is the presence of the 'hatchet" head, which distributes mor eweight to the tip, allowing a more uniform application of force during the stroke. Wood straightens, which helps to pull the hair tighter and to allow greater force on the string. Modern bow, when the player presses hard on the strings, the So the force exerted on the string by the hairĭoesn't increase rapidly as you push the bow down. Pushing harder on a string made the bow more curved, so theĮnds were closer together. With the old bow, which curved away from the strings, This difference in bow shape makes a big difference to playingĪnd sound. ![]() not away from it like an archery bow, or like the violin In the contemporaryīow, the wooden support for the hair is bent towards the hair The part of the bow that touches the strings is made of Quickly, leaving only the fundamental and some weak lower harmonics.īowing maintains the rich harmonic spectrum. The timbre, too: after a pluck, the high harmonics fade away (plucking the string), the bow allows the player to continuously You can always visit our store in Istanbul or check our catalogue through our website to find the Turkish bowed instrument that inspires you the most.Many of the most useful features of the orchestral string instruments Turkish bowed instruments in our store are hand-made, constructed by masters. Black sea people either create sorrowful melodies with kemençe or play alive melodies depending on their mood. Karadeniz kemençe (or just kemençe) is used particularly in the performance of Black Sea Region’s music. Kabak kemane and yayli tanbur have a melancholic but also soothing timbre like classical kemençe which is used in Turkish classical music. Yayli tanbur is the bowed version of Turkish Tanbur. Kabak kemane is a spike fiddle and it is the only example of Turkish instrument with strings, a bow and a belly of skin. Under Turkish Bowed Instruments category of our catalogue you can find varieties of K abak Kemane, K emence, Y ayli Tanbur (bowed tanbur), and C lassical Kemence. Turkish Bowed Instruments are essential in the performance of Turkish classical and folk music.
