How to Play the Saw
Just a few corrections... Saw playing started 300 years ago (and not in the 19th century). It was started by lumberjacks residing in many different countries (not just Russia and South America) without one knowing of the other at that point. Also - not all saws made for music are toothless. Clarence Mussehl's saws were never toothless. If you want to learn more about the history of the musical saw - there is a Musical Saw Festival every summer in New York City where one can take a workshop and learn all about this art form: http://www.musicalsawfestival.org Here is a video from the festival: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FPYmcLZjFIw— October 28, 2010 9:17 a.m.
