Hi, I’m Zlata!

Founder of Violin Lounge & Creator of Bow like a Pro

Zlata Ihou-Brouwer is a classical violinist, teacher and bowing technique nerd helping you play the
music you love with feeling.

“I’m fascinated by the difference a bow makes in sound quality and ease of bowing technique. A
good bow gives you so many tools for expression and helps you get to the next level in your violin
playing.”

Hi, I’m Giedrė!

Giedrė Mundinaitė-Leenhouwers is a young virtuoso violinist who can enchant you with her
Tchaikovsky concerto interpretation and plays crazy virtuosic Paganini stuff without blinking.

“Giedrė is a rare treasure! The excellence of this violinist is marked by an exquisite and translucent
tone, an articulate and precise approach to technique and this is matched with an alluring and
enchanting presence on stage. Always my first choice!”
Graeme Press, Musical Director, Sydney Australia

Zlata asked Giedrė to demonstrate and compare bows for this guide, because she has an exquisite bowing technique and is very good at analysing the characteristics of bows.
