Hey Chris thought I might get you to pop in :) Don the forum is for all categories of bowed string instrument whether electric, acoustic, Viola, Cello or Bass Viol and then some. You can post on any topic you wish (including looping, Heck if your a guitar player and just want to know more feel free to join or visit). Chris just joined the rank of Loopers we did have Stuart Wyatt (Solostring) for a bit but, I think he is busy these days (I think that he and Mark (Madfiddler) Knight were supposed to try out a Looping Trio with a cellist but, I never heard anymore about it from Mark). I stay on this list (LD) and the forum. The mix of styles and people are quite interesting try it out (you can do both) Alan Kroeger -----Original Message----- From: Don Makoviney [mailto:don.makoviney@asg.com] Sent: Monday, September 01, 2003 10:36 AM To: 'Loopers-Delight@loopers-delight.com' Subject: RE: Summary of Violin Loopers Question Yeah I saw that link before. I've been there. I was just asking for loopers is all though, as opposed to just electric fiddlers. I found plenty of those. . . .was just hoping this list was a good place to get right down to the loopers (yeah I'm lazy that way). Figured L-D was a good place. -DM -----Original Message----- From: todd reynolds [mailto:toddreynolds@rcn.com] Sent: Monday, September 01, 2003 10:33 AM To: Loopers-Delight@loopers-delight.com Subject: Re: Summary of Violin Loopers Question Okay you all, if you REALLY want ALL the fiddle info, follow this link. I'm sorry, I should have offered this to you a few days ago, my head wasn't focused... This site is a pretty complete resource, though I don't think i'm listed... (my own fault.)

Ed Allyne Johnson Martha Mooke - Viola http://www.marthamooke.com/Listening%20Room.htm "Electric five string viola. She has developed a unique musical voice by synthesizing her classical music training with extended techniques, digital effects processing and improvisation, while retaining the depth and soul of the instrument. She has received awards from ASCAP, Meet the Composer and Arts International among others." Garmarna http://www.garmarna.com/ Hedningarna http://www.cabal.se/silence/nyhedning/ Bruce Cockburn Hugh Marsh, the violinist in question is VITAL listening for any electric violinist, looping or no looping. He's fantastic - check out any of Bruce's 80s albums for lots of Hugh's work. (in fact, just check out any of Bruce's albums because they are amazing, forget about instrumentation... :o) Zoe Keating - Cello http://www.zoekeating.com/ Gideon Freudmann - Cello http://www.cellobop.com Enjoy!
