You can play all of these string techniques on all four string section instruments, but they will have different tonal qualities to them, depending on which instrument is playing them.
Even if you deal exclusively with sample libraries, and have no intention of ever writing for real instruments, this section is still massively important.
It’s going to help you understand all of the various articulations that come with sample libraries. And the more you understand them, the better you’ll be able to write for them, and the more realistic you’ll be able to make your pieces sound.
It’s going to open up a whole new world of timbres and sounds for you to get your teeth stuck into.
All demonstrations performed by the amazing Xiana Harron: / xianaharronmusic
