The first basic principle behind a clean bow line is posture, as Harrell alludes to (11' 15"). That is possibly why 'young' cellists have less command, according to Mr Cole at any rate. That low spike and right tilt have become a thing of the past, sadly. "The equipment is ok"... best line ever! The only thing I don't quite agree with is that the area with the greatest sensitivity in relation to the sound we make is the fingers. For one, the fingers are simply too close to the action to have any real impact in the grand scheme of things. I personally think the articulation most sensitive to the bow's needs is the elbow, as it determines the contact point and the speed. The hand and wrist are expert at dealing with pressure, but that's only one out of three.
