Subject: Chinese violin (Ar-wou), HELP?
Organization: Ellemtel Telecom Systems Labs, Stockholm, Sweden
Date: Tue, 13 Oct 1992 15:49:49 GMT

Hi,
I bought a chinese violin this summer and it has just
arrived (at last :-) after beeing stuck in the costumes.
However I have some questions about it and couldn't
find any better place to send them to so here we go:

Does anyone know how to tune this sucker? What frequence
are the different two strings supposed to produce?

From a consert in Bejing I clearly remember the bow to
be connected _under_ the strings, so to produce a tone
you had to lift it instead of pressing it down.
Is that a correct observation or should I have  brought
my glasses?

Can anyone tell me how the strings are supposed
to be placed around the knobs at the top of the
neck, ie the span between them? Now I seem to have two
options, one giving me a span of 10-12 mm (diameter of
lower knob) the other a span of maybe 1-2 mm...
This also affects the effective lenght of the two
strings, in one case both are in contact with the lower
knob.

Thanks for any help,
                     Patrik

Probably the best source of Prince information on the network is the

Many people here seem to think that Sinead attacked all the Roman Catholics 
as people while tearing a picture of the Pope. I wouldn't make that kind of 
conclusion. To me it seems that her aim was the RCC and the whole organized 
religion as represented by the Pope. As far as I've understood she is still 
religious in the meaning of believing in God, it's just that the RCC and the 
values the Pope propagates are too much for her.

Of course, many Roman Catholics are upset and hurt by her act and feel it 
was directed against them as well since Pope the IS the Roman Catholic 
religion for many. Still, she's not the only Roman Catholic turned against 
her Church but not against the religion itself (many US bishops and gay 
activists, South American liberation theologists). 

(Sorry, it doesn't have much to do with r.m.m. anymore. Change of group?)

                I was wondering how many of you got a chance to see the 
Madonna video thing on friday night.  I personally don't see what all the 
fuss is about.  If it's labelled as the expression of the art of 
sexuallity etc. I really don't see why all the fuss.  Granted alot of 
'youngins' are gonna take a look at the videos and figure... great more 
of this 'stuff', however thats because they are not yet able to 
comprehend the meaning behind the video... but I still think it should be 
aired regularly.

No it won't. I don't know the exact story but there is something wrong with 
the rights to this album (i.e. the wrong person ownes them). "Warriors on 
the edge of time" will NOT be released as a CD (what a shame).

Guitar?  Nay-ruzle, that was an electric ukelele, or however you spell
