    well, there is nothing unusual there ; left hand vibrato and right hand bow strokes are legato.

    I cannot see anything like harmonics or pizzicato being used..

    Nice melody though....pretty lady too.

    I concur with brian777. Legato, smooth bow strokes. Very dolce. He is using a nice mellow vibrato with his left. It is a music video so what you see him doing doesn't always match exactly with the recording.

    i agreee

    in the left hand-vibrato

    in the right-nothing really special, just legato (smooth) bowing and some slurs
