In April 1994, at a solo recital given by Mari Kimura in New York City, subharmonics were introduced to the musical community as a revolutionary bowing technique to extend the violin's range by a full octave below on the open G string without changing the tuning.

Subharmonics can be used as a musical element for composers to explore additional possibilities for the violin and other string instruments.
