I came across this interview with EM, thought it was interesting. He talks a bit about many subjects-- Setup, technique, amplification, strings. I like the part about his $10 bow.

Great link, Dad! I'm happy finally to see an article which focuses on Meyer's technique, rather than his alleged freakishness. (New Yorker, take note.)

Anyone who has ever seen Edgar (if I may be so bold) play would not question his technique. I got to see him in Amsterdam when he was with Yo-Yo Ma and Mark O'Conner. Omigod. And he gives a very interesting interview.
