Half-finished Viola frog Galliane 441 ™

With the Galliane the bow can ideally adjust to the musician´s arm movement, creating a completely unknown pleasure of sound and playing experience.
Galliane was developed in 2007 by one of the most successful contemporary bow makers Bernoît Rolland. By means of a light angle at the base of the bow frog the hairband formerly parallel to the bow is turned in a slightly spiral way. The bow adjusts to the natural arm movement and the hairband lies with its larger surface on the strings, which improves both solidity and fullness of tone. This avant-garde bow frog differs from traditional models clearly in sound and art.
