This new translation of Carl Flesch’s classic work deals with practically everything of concern to the violinist. Flesch seeks to give guidance to teachers on the most suitable methods of instructing their pupils in violin technique and to equip violinists with the tools that enable them to analyse technical issues for themselves. This attractive new edition contains material published for the first time in English. When first published this was a trail-blazing work and it has lost none of its significance today.
Paperback. 192pp; music examples and illustrations.

‘Viotti’ Antonio Stradivari violin 1709 poster
One of the top Stradivari violins in the world, the 1709 'Viotti' helped to establish the master's name – thanks to its illustrious owner. The powerful tone and brilliance of sound created by this exceptional combination of instrument and performer (G.B. Viotti) helped to create the Stradivari legend. Includes measurements
‘The whole instrument seems to have been designed to be light, to exploit the minimum mass of wood in the plates and ribs which could support a low but characteristically stiff arching. The arching is full and seems undistorted and extremely regular. The front is delicately worked with a reverse gradation of 2.5–3mm around the perimeter reducing to 2mm in the centre. Yet still the arching is firm, with no sign of collapse around the fs or excessive pressure from the soundpost.’ – John Dilworth in the March 2006 issue
