Rosie Moon [https://rosiemoon.com/] joins us today to share the story behind *Twelve Bees In A Jar [https://rosiemoon.com/twelve-bees-in-a-jar-cd], her* multi-year Dragonetti project exploring his music on gut strings, a three-string bass, and a convex "Dragonetti" bow. Rosie talks about how a chance encounter with a bow at a UK bass shop kicked off a deep dive into historical equipment, technique, and the surprisingly big that happens when you take a string off the instrument.
