You are not implying that he [Kolisch] used a normal strung instrument? That I am absolutely certain was not what he did.

What can I say? I saw him do it. And from what I was told about the "why" of it all, I'm not even sure he was left-handed.

Sorry, Andrew, I think there may be a misunderstanding.

No, I meant what I said and I said what I meant. To finger a note on the G string, he wrapped his RH all the way around the back of the neck and across all the other strings. There was absolutely no mistaking the appearance of this, and I had discussions about it with several string players of my acquaintance, who marveled at his ability to play *anything* that way.
