Do you think it's true if Sebastian played violin left handed it would sound totally different than right handed? I've seen that kinda post pop up here and there and I don't know much about music and violin and I assumed it didn't matter how you hold an instrument but also Sebastian being a demon maybe that has something to do with it?? What do you think?

Hi, anon! Although my musical training was primarily in voice (plus two semesters of rudimentary piano), I happen to know a violinist right here on tumblr.com: One of my mutuals, @reine-du-sourire . When I asked her, she told me what I’d suspected based on my limited experience with the piano—as long as Sebastian was playing with the appropriate technique, it wouldn’t matter which hand he used for bowing.

While both Chapter 2 of the manga and Episode 3 of Season 1 (“His Butler, Omnipotent”) show Sebas holding the bow in his right hand, this probably isn’t due to the risk of demonic music emanating from his sinister left hand, but a reflection of the fact that most violins are built to be played from the right. reine-du-sourire explained to me that, although “left-handed” (bowed with the left) violins do exist, they’re something of a rarity and tend to come with a heftier price tag. She speculated that trash demon might gleefully whip out one of these special left-handed violins to bewilder and astound the audience; I could see him being even more obnoxious and skillfully bowing a conventional violin with his right hand in order to flaunt his skill.

Furthermore, in a fic, having Sebastian play with his left could highlight his tendency to be a lone virtuoso rather than a team player. One article I found on left-handed violins said that an orchestra member who bowed from the left would risk inadvertently “sword-fighting” with nearby violinists or even knocking out someone’s eye due to their bow being held at an opposite angle that clashes with the standard position.

However, if the butler is a true leftie (as suggested by his duel with Agni in Chapter 17), reine postulates that he could enjoy an advantage with fingerwork on the strings, since that is traditionally done with the left hand.
