What is "spiccato"?
Spiccato is a bowing technique used on string instruments, such as the violin or cello, where the bow bounces lightly off the strings. This creates a short, detached sound with a crisp, articulated quality. Spiccato is often used to add rhythmic clarity and dynamic expression to the music, particularly in fast passages or lively sections.
