The Violin, How to Choose One (Classic Reprint) by Wm. C. Honeyman Pdf

Excerpt from The Violin, How to Choose One Simple though the work may appear, it has cost me more labour than a six-month story, but no tale from my pen has attracted more attention or drawn forth more unqualified expressions of gratitude and loving approval. During the last six months, while these papers have been appearing, I have received from six to twelve letters daily, all of which were couched in terms of praise and delight except two. One of these was only carping and scornful, the other was so horribly abusive that I had not strength to read more than six lines before dropping it into the waste basket. The majority, therefore, have carried the day, and the papers now appear as a book. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The Violin and Its Music (Classic Reprint) by George Hart Pdf

Excerpt from The Violin and Its Music Violin and its famous makers was received with so much indulgence by my friends and admirers of the leading instrument. The signs of approval which have from time to time been brought under my notice with regard to the publication of that book, prompted me to again occupy some portion of my leisure hours in the preparation'of another volume, treating of the remaining branch of the same subject, namely: The Violin and its Music. I need scarcely remark, that I am not unmindful of the distinctive character of the two undertakings, and of the wholly different knowledge necessary to be brought to bear upon each.

The Story of the Violin (Classic Reprint) by Paul Stoeving Pdf

Excerpt from The Story of the Violin Once, in its crude primeval form, in the dim ages of antiquity, it was perhaps the most despised and neglected of instruments; then, after cen turice of slow development, which seemed like the groping through darkness towards light, it burst upon the world two or three hundred years ago in a perfection which human wit has never since been able to improve upon.

Old Violins by H. R. Haweis Pdf

Excerpt from Old Violins: And Violin LoreWhat is the secret of the violin? Why is it that when a great violinist appears all the other soloists have to take a back seat?The answer is: the fascination of the violin is the fascination of the soul unveiled.No instrument - the human voice hardly excepted - provides such a rare vehicle for the emotions - is in such close touch with the molecular vibrations of thought and with the psychic waves of feeling. But whilst the violin equals the voice in sensibility and expression, it far transcends it in compass, variety, and durability.Consider the singular completeness and perfection of this instrument as a sort of physical and vibratory counterpart of the soul. The four strings no doubt limit and define its compass, and only in the quartet and collectively, is it capable of extended effects of complex harmony; but as a tone-producing instrument and within its limits it is perfect - every gradation of sound between tone and semitone is attainable, and for no other instrument can this be claimed.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The Violin by George Hart Pdf

Excerpt from The Violin: Its Famous Makers and Their Imitators For some time I have been in a state of doubt as to which course to pursue - whether to follow the usual custom, and address the reader in a Preface, or to combine my prefatory remarks with a Dedication. It will be seen that I have chosen the latter method. I am aware that inscriptions in connection with books are no longer in vogue; the necessity for them has happily long since passed away. In these free press days, though the writer of a book be the most obscure individual in the paths of literature, yet his pages will not lack readers, always providing they are worth perusal.

Notes on the Construction of the Violin (Classic Reprint) by Walter Bulkeley Coventry Pdf

Excerpt from Notes on the Construction of the Violin IT is one of the marvels of the age that for the last two cen tuties no improvement whatever has been found possible in the construction of the violin. The apparent simplicity of its structure sometimes gives rise to the idea that there is almost a reproach to science in the fact that so little is known concerning the principles of the instrument; that there is in fact no theory of the violin worthy of the name.

Violin Playing (Classic Reprint) by Fellow of King's College and Professor of Political Theory John Dunn,John Dunn Pdf

Excerpt from Violin Playing The rules and method, etc., set forth are simply the ordinary results of my own long experience as both teacher and public soloist, together with a keen selection of the best points peculiar to the most eminent violinists of our time. Each portion of the whole subject follows on in systematically arranged order according to the degree of difficulty, thus making reference to any particular point more easy. Without claiming to have founded any new system of technique, style or school, an honest attempt has been made to explain the most simple and natural method and means of obtaining such really correct technique as would form a sound preliminary towards attaining the highest degree of style and polish always noticeable in the very finest players. It is hoped that teachers also will find some useful hints to simplify their labours in the teaching of slow or difficult pupils, and should any struggling violinist by the perusal of this book be guided out of a fault or have his difficulties in any way lessened, the writer will be more than compensated for his small endeavours.
