I got advice about this from a cellist (thanks again @Gaolaitch), but no response yet from any #violin players. Anyone out there willing to comment? If so, I’ve also added 2 more bars of lead-up. The whole passage looks like this now. My goal is to achieve about this much energy and motion without wasting the performers’ practice time or making them hate me. (This bit is necessary but not the main thing going on when it happens.)

ex "Kurtz" #Violin c1560 Andrea #Amati (Italian)
earliest of the great Cremonese luthiers... credited with defining the violin's elegant form & setting the standard of superb craftsmanship that likewise characterizes the work of his followers, who included 2 of his sons and his grandson Nicolò, as well as Antonio #Stradivari (collections incl several violins by NA & S) but this much older rarer inst beautifully illustrates Renaissance origin of the violin's familiar form
"What sometimes gets forgotten amid the myriad horrors of the #Shoah (Hebrew for #Holocaust) is the systematic obliteration of entire cultures. #Shtetls (#Yiddish for 'small towns') with predominantly, or entirely, #Jewish populations were scattered across the east. In a world in which pogroms might flare up and result in massacres, these communities provided relative security out of which all kinds of cultural expression might flourish. Core to them was often a rich #musical life, with the #violin at its core. This playlist seeks to commemorate that heritage."

A violinist's bow-hold is something that is often regional, but also personal and can evolve over the years 
Mine has changed over the last 30ish years due to various circumstances: my teachers, my skill level, a hiatus, exploration of genres other than classical...there are a lot 
Today, I realised that I'm a Japanese/Indigenous/American violinist using a German violin with a hybrid between an Italian (Campagnoli) and Russian bow-hold while playing music composed by people from all over the world, and that makes me both giggle and appreciate just how much of the world and its people I hold in me
