Description
Michael Bach performing with his BACH.bow, probably during the 2008 Other Minds Music Festival (OM13). The bow is bent so as to allow the musician to play all four strings of the cello simultaneously. Some think that Johann Sebastian Bach composed some of his cello music with such a bow in mind, and Michael Bach is one of the main proponents of the technique in recent times.
