Kester Music recently posted a question to Tong Ming Xi, a reputable luthier in Singapore entrusted as the sole restorer of The Rin Collection.
QUESTION : Can you enlighten us on why do students need the correct sized violin ?
ANSWER : Its all about postures. Right posture results in right bowing technique, right intonation, right articulations and the list goes on. During the recent Singapore Violin Competition, we found the winners to have perfect postures and naturally they look very nice and pleasure while they play. Its a constant effort to seek the right posture and it all starts from using the correct sized violin!!
