The violin and the art of its construction: a treatise on the Stradivarius violin

In giving publicity to this treatise on the construction of the violin, I believe I am only meeting the wishes of many, both professionals and amateurs, who are desirous of learning more particulars concerning the construction of their instruments, but am also giving a few practical hints to my younger comrades in the art of violin-making. I hope also to induce some of my older colleagues to give forth other works of the same kind, which may serve to ennoble and promote our art. Times without number I have been asked by friends of the violin, during my 40 years work as a violin maker, to recommend books giving more exact information on the construction of that instrument, but the only answer that I have been able to give has been that German technical literature on the subject is very meagre, and that information from foreign works is mostly impoverished by feeble translations. Very few authors understand the general build of the violin thoroughly, they pay most attention to individual points, those most calculated to attract the attention of amateurs; for example, the proportions of single parts, their size, etc. There is only one work I can recommend which forms an exception to this rule and that is The Memoirs of Antonio[Pg 8] Bagatella (Padua 1786) which has been published in a German translation by Franz Wunder at Gttingen. ......Buy Now (To Read More)
