In this video Myles explains the purpose of rosin and how to correctly apply it to your bow.
In particular Myles demonstrates how to apply rosin to a brand new bow (and what a new bow without rosin sounds like), and provides a basic guide to follow as to how much rosin you should apply once you have started using your bow.
Tips for new bows:
- Aim for an even application across the length of the bow
- Work the rosin on in a short back and forth motion to apply a consistent amount of rosin to the new bow
- 10-15 seconds for a new bow should be sufficient to apply the correct amount of rosin
- If you apply too much rosin, don't be alarmed, it will wear off through playing.
Tips for applying rosin to a bow that has already had rosin applied to it:
- Use long strokes
- A basic guide to follow is that for every hour's worth of practice, apply 10 even strokes to your bow
- Other methods could be once a week, or a little bit every time you play. Finding the correct amount will take some time, based on how much you are playing your instrument!
