Subject: re: [Harp-L] Vibrato



       
 
Hi Rick:
 
 I distinctly remember Robert Bonfiglio describing and  demonstrating what he 
referred to as "hand vibrato" on the Chromatic at  his Seminar held at the 
Grand Canyon this past September (as well as the  other methods he used).  I 
know a couple of other students of  his attended from harp-l....perhaps they too 
can chime in with their  remembrances about it as well?  (given that I'm 
anything BUT an  expert on the issue...the only vibrato I think I've managed to 
achieve  thus far is via shaking with fear on stage <G>).  Since I  consider 
Robert my "teacher" now, I'm going to have to continue  to refer to hand vibrato 
that way until either he  alters his method of description or agrees with you 
that it now  should be called "tremolo". 
 
I'm trying to send you via direct link, the pertinent video wherein  Adam 
Gussow clearly demonstrates the notable changes between his  throat and 
diaphragmatic vibratos...close-up, for the camera, even raising  his shirt to show the 
differences (I quite enjoyed that, actually).  :)

Matt;
Unfortunately I do not  have access to Youtube through my
server;I would like to see Adam's  videos. I agree that it is possible to
'shake' the diaphragm. I don't  think it creates 'vibrato', however.
'Tremolo', yes.  I would like  to be proved wrong! The differencebetween
tremplo & vibrato has  already been detailed by myself and a few others.
You can't confuse one  with the other. Using your hands is certainly
tremolo only, as it  alters only volume/tone and not pitch.
Regards,
RD"
