It is intended to document our meeting held at Gasteig, Munich, along with Andreas R\u00f6hn, on 7th of September 1999, when we discussed the BACH.Bow.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Lorin Maazel had become interested in my curved bow when he witnessed my first working session with Mstislaw Rostropowitsch in Berlin in 1998. At the time, he himself was directing his own \u201e<em>Music for Violoncello and Orchestra<\/em>&#8221; in the Berlin Philharmonic concert hall.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">My demonstration of the curved bow in Munich was the first occasion on which Lorin Maazel was able to react to this innovation in instrumental technique: and for that reason it marks a historical stage in the development of the BACH.Bogen, especially as two years later I introduced the new model in Paris, which replaced the previous version and is in use today.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">On the name \u201aLorin Maazel\u2018 I composed a piece called \u201e<em>3 Pitches, 11 Sounds<\/em>&#8221; (2000) for violin with curved bow.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>Michael Bach<\/strong>: If you wish \u2026 you can also play one single line, just one voice, with the bow hairs relatively loose. And this gives of course \u2026<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">[demonstrating on the cello]<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">\u2026 a different sound.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>Lorin Maazel<\/strong>: So, of course &#8211; what can I say? One must try it out!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">And, it is a question whether I could keep two curved bows at home for some \u2026 I do not know, how long I will be in Munich \u2026 I stay in Munich another 5 days and in Europe another 10 days. Then I am in the United States and do not come back before January.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">But I need only about 2 days, but now I am too busy. But, in principle, this interests me. It would be much better to look at this in January when I will be here for 6 months. Then I will be able, without disruption, maybe during 1 month, to keep 1 to 2 curved bows \u2013 and see what I can do with it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Because, I am a big admirer of Bach, I play all these things, and am always unhappy, with all solutions, I mean the Arpeggios \u2026<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">My bridge is quite flat, I have a good violin, and I get 3 notes easily, but one is not able to do 4 (laughs).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>MB<\/strong>: But 3 notes \u2026<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>LM<\/strong>: \u2026 quite in forte.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>MB<\/strong>: \u2026 strongly.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>LM<\/strong>: And if I should play softly\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">(<strong>MB<\/strong> demonstrates soft chords in the cello)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>LM<\/strong>: You make these bow changes completely skilfully. This cannot be easy \u2026 at the tip \u2026<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>MB<\/strong>: At the tip it is the most difficult. (demonstrates on the cello)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>LM<\/strong>: One can hardly make a joint movement, right?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>MB<\/strong>: On the violin this is different. But with this bow it goes better\u2026 because the position is approximately that of the normal bow. This was the goal. The question is, and so my question to you would be: Should one change something else as well? In fact there are whole fresh prototypes which are just lacquered and still in the test phase.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>LM<\/strong>: The real old curved bows, they are not to be used any more, or are they?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>MB<\/strong>: I don\u2019t know any of these.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>LM<\/strong>: (laughs) They are not \u2026<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>MB<\/strong>: I have never seen one. So there are sculptures, stone sculptures \u2026<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>LB<\/strong>: Photographs \u2026<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>MB<\/strong>: But these curved bows had no mechanics at the grip.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>LM<\/strong>: One had to do this with the thumb, then\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">I have seen sometimes that one turns around the bow \u2026<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>MB<\/strong>: Yes, yes, Paganini \u2026<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>LM<\/strong>: Yes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>MB<\/strong>: \u2026 he made such experiments. On the violin this works, on the cello not. He played this way polyphonically. There are sketches by him. {of him?} Very interesting. I do not know whether you know about this?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>LM<\/strong>: Yes, I have seen such a thing. I have also tried such a thing where one holds, actually, the violin and the bow in such a way, one must detach the frog, the violin comes in between (between bow hair and bow stick), and then one plays like this (demonstrates without instrument).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">It is astonishing how many notes one can play at the same time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Why do you have this here \u2026<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>MB<\/strong>: I must be able to\u2026 (demonstrates on the cello) pull up here \u2026 with the small finger.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>LM<\/strong>: Oh, I see. So one needs \u2026<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>MB<\/strong>: One needs a hold. Whether it should be so big, this is another question.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>LM<\/strong>: So \u2026 ah \u2026 I have understood. Somewhere the hand must be stable. Then here \u2026 and this movement one can make easier. I understand.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>MB<\/strong>: The other problem was that the hand could slip. Therefore this stop.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>LM<\/strong>: OK, please give me for to play approx. 3 curved bows of different kind. I play with a rather light bow. So, I do not think that it is such a big difference.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">But it would interest me. I have a meeting with violinists, \u2026 and how this (the curved bow) sounds on a good violin.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>MB<\/strong>: (takes another prototype) This bow is better, it offers more support, a better grip. I think, one could make a high curved bow with this grip.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>LM<\/strong>: OK, we try this. And then also with this grip. Yes, OK. We do this in such a way. And I will try this because it interests me very much (laughs).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Do you know professor R\u00f6hn?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>MB<\/strong>: Yes, by name.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">(<strong>LM<\/strong> gets Mr. Andreas R\u00f6hn, concert master of the Munich philharmonic orchestra.)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>LM<\/strong>: (to Andreas R\u00f6hn) I would like to show you something.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>AR<\/strong>: Yes, with pleasure.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>LM<\/strong>: This is Mr. Bach, this is Mr. R\u00f6hn.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>MB<\/strong>: I know your recording of Rudi Stephan\u2019s violin concerto.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>AR<\/strong>: Yes, I have played it very often.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>LM<\/strong>: An excellent cellist and, he has specialised in BACH.Bows and \u2026 it is astonishing \u2026 he has designed different models \u2026<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">(<strong>MB<\/strong> demonstrates on the cello)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>MB<\/strong>: This is the flat curved bow \u2026 and this, the high curved one, \u2026<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>LM<\/strong>: It is an astonishing sound.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>MB<\/strong>: \u2026 sounds like that [demonstrates]: four voices up to the tip.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>LM<\/strong>: This way one can play chords softly.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>AR<\/strong>: Yes, one must be incredibly sure of the left hand.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>LM<\/strong>: Until now, I have not really played the curved bow, though I have tried &#8230;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>AR<\/strong>: I am not able to do it at all \u2026<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>LM<\/strong>: Yes, but one need touch it only for 2 minutes and then one dares \u2026 I have felt it on my hand [LM tried out the curved bow without a violin and used his left hand as a substitute] and, nevertheless, after 2 minutes I have understood a little bit (laughs).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">At the beginning one thinks it is not possible at all \u2026 and then one realizes, that \u2026<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>AR<\/strong>: And these are the different models?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>MB<\/strong>: Yes, these are all different models.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>LM<\/strong>: And with that one can keep the bow under control.
