Bartok Pizzicato

Uses the same same basic technique as orchestral pizzicato with the exception that the string is pulled with excessive force so that the string rebounds off the fingerboard resulting in a combination of pitch and a percussive slap.


Dynamic Range: f-ff
Difficulty: 1
Special Notes: Physical technique, extensive repeated use not recommended.
Notation
  • Verbal instruction plus Bartok Pizz Symbol. Symbol alone will suffice.
