Frog Fact
The frog is the part of the bow that holds and adjusts the horsehair. Rectangular in shape, it is made of ebony, horn or other materials. "Play at the frog" means to draw the bow across the strings from the lower part of the bow, producing a stronger sound as a result of the weight of the hand and arm. The Italian word for this part of the bow is "tallone" (heel). The German word is "frosch" (frog). Why is it called a frog? No one is sure.
