i was listening to this today and watching the bowing. How does she made the sound at 48 and 57 seconds. And also is she making colours ? I know how that sounds by the way 🤣

At secs 48 & 57, she's doing a slide--starting below the annotated note and sliding up to it.

Characterize people by their actions and you will never be fooled by their words.

@Katie L -

That short slide into a note is done quite a bit in trad folk music.  

Thought we had a version of "Mná Na hÉireann"  shared in the Relaxing to Celtic Music Thread, but nope - I'll link there to this thread, because THIS version (by Sharon Corr) is FANTASTIC! 

THANK YOU! 

Mná Na hÉireann Sheet Music - the Session

 

Btw, if you want more info about using the bow to achieve different 'tone colours', there's a great series of 3 short articles at Red Desert Violin - might be helpful.

2.) Phrase Shaping: Another Handy Use of Bow Distribution

3.) Tone Color on Violin: Another Component of Bow Distribution
