Take a Bow Feedback

‘Working through the bows made me feel confident about my own ability to choose for myself.  There were at least ten bows in the exhibition which I would happily have used for a concert; this made me realise that there are infinite combinations of qualities in the best bows and there is huge scope for players who are looking for one or more bows to suit them and their instruments.’  Hannah Roberts

'Bows are such a mystery but when a bow works for a string player the result can be magical.’ 
Colin Carr

‘I’d definitely recommend the exhibition.  There’s no comparison really.  You just never get so many bows in one place at one time and having the choice in front of you is unique.’
Rachel Samuel
 

 ‘At the end of it all your gut instinct is the most important thing.  You get to know yourself a bit better as you work through the bows.  It’s an exploration of the bow-self!’ 

Paul Barritt 

‘Robin was an enormous help, making encouraging comments, popping in and out and helping me to keep going.  I felt Robin was very genuine and impartial.  At times I wanted more advice than he was happy to offer, but I’m glad now that I made my own way through the jungle - the right bow found me in the end.’  Josephine Horder

 ‘I really enjoyed coming to Ely.  You were so welcoming and the acoustics of the room and the character of the house were so delightful that I felt completely at ease – in the best frame of mind to focus and make decisions.’  

Rebecca Spencer
