Pedro de Alcantara's The Integrated String Player: Embodied
Vibration is a practical guide for all string players: violinists
and violists, cellists and bassists, but also gamba players and
anyone who makes music drawing a bow across a string. Dozens of
exercises, supported by a dedicated website with 80 video clips,
cover all the basics of string playing, including left-hand
articulation, vibrato, changes of position, double-stopping, sound
production, string crossings, and many other techniques. Each
exercise, however simple or complex, can become a meditation with
the goal of integrating the musical, technical, and metaphysical
aspects of a player's practice. Part I is devoted to the
fundamentals of coordination, rhythm, and listening in depth. Part
II focuses on the left hand, with an emphasis on healthy gestures
that are charged with musicality and meaning. Part III covers the
bowing arm, exploring innovative concepts such as expressive
gesticulation, mechanical intelligence, and the use of the bow as
the player's voice, both literally and symbolically. Part IV covers
the integration of analytical thought and sensorial practice,
providing an extensive study of the harmonic series, the circle of
fifths, Tartini tones, and many other sonic aspects that are
essential to a string player's musical freedom. In addition, the
conversational, linguistic, compositional, and improvisatory
dimensions of string playing are discussed and supported by
multiple practical exercises. The Integrated String Player is
addressed to players of all abilities and from all aesthetic
backgrounds: students and professionals, teachers and performers,
classically trained musicians and jazz players, chamber-music
players and orchestral players.
