SLOW TEMPOS
Hello again – Do you notice anything?
Remember, a weight placed on a pendulum determines the speed of its constant motion. Moving the weight up and down changes the speed of the metronome’s motion.
My ribbon is at the location of a metronome weight.
The very slow, arch shape, sweeping motions of a pendulum-metronome is similar to the motions that are performed while using the bow.
Yes, my ribbon is quite a fashion statement; however, I chose to place the ribbon weight at the very end of the pendulum for a reason, to represent Slow Tempos.
