I did not know this was a thing with bow and mallet. I will have to dig out my old saw. Really enjoyable. Thanks
Thanks to Ms. Paruz for devoting so much of her time and effort to mastering this quite difficult and demanding instrument. Without her, and others like her, the skill -- even the idea -- of playing music on a handsaw would disappear.

Crazy how her saw playing has led her away from the idea of set keys and scales since the semitones aren't a linear progression of a single variable for her; to get from one note to another involves tweaking enough variables that it's not even worth thinking of things in terms of set scales. She seems to have developed insane muscle memory to find the right sound she wants on the saw, and combined it with perfect pitch hearing. Jamming for her must be such a cool experience, like dancing to the other instruments instead of thinking about the scale and "I IV III IV" type stuff. Rob's a legend for not only given these people a platform but being so damn talented himself that he can really show us how they think and work relative to other musicians.

You know what's ironic? You wouldn't write this kind of wank for a fretless guitar or a trombone even though a lot of what you said would still apply. You realize instruments without predetermined intervals are common, right? Most of your comment honestly doesn't even make sense. Microtonality doesn't mean chords and intervals don't matter. It could actually make it matter more, since you're using unorthodox intervals, which matters more than actual pitches/frequencies. It's the ratio/intervals that give the chord its sound, NOT the notes/frequencies. That's why 432hz songs still sound musically coherent when it's "out of tune." The intervals between notes are still the same. The only possible exception I see is if you have perfect pitch.

It already is a "legit" instrument. It would be interesting to see it more in popular music though.
i love that youre making the instrumentalists play along on the guitar as well. its always fun to see them try new things too

I love how beautiful and eerie the saw sounds
I've never heard an instrument with such a vocal quality to the sound
Since it's basically a sine wave with very little for overtones, it would be really great to see how an ensamble of saw players could harmonize with them.

Music is in everything! We are blessed to be able to shape music
i think the guitar really compliments the beautiful sound of the saw
not only did i just learn that you can play a saw as an instrument, but my goodness her vibes are so good. i truly believe that making music out of seemingly 'random' objects is the peak of humanity. like good cooking and music. that's human nature imo

I love that this isn't some "novelty", but the range and sound of the Saw is genuinely beautiful!? This is perhaps the closest I've heard a non-electronic instrument mimic the human voice and I can see it harmonize with a singer ALSO, a 30 minute video never drew me in so fast!!! First time watching anything from this channel and I got sucked in immediately!!! Great job!!!

Yes, there needs to be an orchestra with all of these instruments.

My Dad plays saw. Completely self taught. Played at my wedding! I tried a couple of times. So fun! He didn't have a fancy one. Just a functional saw and a pliers to hold the end
