David Boyden's classic book, first published in 1965, was the first
to deal comprehensively with the history of violin playing against
the vast panorama of the violin's evolution and the music written
for it. Its principal theme is the manner in which the violin was
actually played in past centuries, dealing with such practical
questions as bowing disciplines in their national and historical
evolution, the performance of staccato, the use of vibrato, the
meaning of numerous and esoteric performing directions, the
notation and performance of double stops, the rules of scordatura
playing, and the sound of the violin in early times. Remaining an
invaluable source of reference for the performance of early music,
this book is now available for the first time in paperback.
