   15: The left hand serves two purposes:
   16: </p>
   17: <ul>
   18: <li>fingering of notes</li>
   19: <li>vibrato</li>
   20: </ul>
   21: <p>
   22: The categories of fingerings and vibratoes can work to
   23: generate highly complex sound.  Careful attention must
   24: given to the proper form of the left hand.  While quick
   25: actions, glissandos, harmonics, trills, shifts,
   26: and double stops add great embellishment, improper execution
   27: can lead to a mediocre sound.

   30: Here is a brief glossary of left hand activities:
   31: </p>
   32: <ul>
   33: <li>double stops: two fingers are creating separate intonations on
   34: two different strings</li>
   35: <li>glissando: the quick ascension or descension of notes</li>
   36: <li>trills: quick oscillatory actions by a left finger</li>
   37: <li>harmonics: reduced pressure by intonating fingers to allow for alternative pitches
   38: due to adjusted string vibrations</li>
   39: <li>shifts: movement of the left hand <i>in toto</i> relative to the violin scroll</li>
