Abe Liebhaber violin bow, silver mounted, San Diego, CA, USA, 58.1g
This bow is part of our 7th annual Contemporary American Makers Exhibition, 2024
I made my first bow with Lynn Hannings in 2011 at the University of New Hampshire Bowmaking Program founded by Bill Salchow, and continued my study of bowmaking with George Rubino, Matt Cooker, and Steve Beckley. Each of my bows is a handmade original from the preparation of the bow blanks from rough-sawn boards of pernambuco to the first application of hair before the final finish, wrapping and branding of the stick. Since 2016 I have participated in the Violin Society of Americaās Bowmaking Workshop at Oberlin where I contribute to the group reproduction of interesting bows for great clients. This workshop has given me the opportunity to meet, work with, and learn from fellow bowmakers from the USA, North and South America, Europe, and Asia- many of who are participating in this exhibition.
The materials of bowmaking are sublime in their natural state and I try to honor that as much a I can in my finished work: pernambuco, snake, ipe, and katalox woods, ebony of many colors, abalone and mother-of-pearl seashells, and traditional as well as novel tip materials. I enjoy combining them to make bows that feel good in the hand of the musician with an emphasis on bows with superior playing characteristics.
In addition to making bows, I continue to work as a professional cellist with a position in the Arizona Opera and with Camarada San Diego. I hope that being a performer contributes to the overall quality of the bows I make. Each unfinished bow is as unique as the musician who ends up using it, and I take particular satisfaction in making choices that determine the playing characteristics and appearance of my creations.
