Bowed string instrument

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Bowed)

Bowed string instruments are a subcategory of string instruments that are played by a bow rubbing the strings. The bow rubbing the string causes vibration which the instrument emits as sound.

Despite the numerous specialist studies devoted to the origin of bowing, the origin of bowing remains unknown.[1]
