String Techniques

Is there some place online (not YouTube!) where I can listen to the various bowing techniques in strings.  For example, for someone who does not play a string, it is hard to understand the difference in marcato from spiccato fom martellato.

Maybe...this?

Or get Adler's DVDs, or something off of Amazon.

Buy the score, listen to the recording.

Not always an option, I went to my local string shop asking about Turangalila, and they said they could order it for me, for close to $200, for the small size.  Just saying.  But, regarding U2's suggestion, you could check a local university's library (and bring an mp3 player), possibly, or follow it, if you simply wish to hear basic techniques, I guess, but pick a score with a multitude of techniques =P  But, I'd prefer to hear it each instrument solo, personally.  =P

Currently editing a video that shows a lot of this up close.
