First published in 2004, this book demonstrates that while Britain
produced many fewer instrumental virtuosi than its foreign
neighbours, there developed a more serious and widespread interest
in the cultivation of music throughout the nineteenth century.
Taking a predominantly historical approach, the book moves from a
discussion of general developments and issues to a detailed
examination of violin pedagogy, method and content, which indicates
society's influence on cultural trends and informs the discussion
of other instruments and institutional training that follows. In
the first study of its kind, it examines in depth the inextricable
links between trends in society, education and levels of
achievement. It also extends beyond profession and 'art' music to
amateur and 'popular' spheres. A useful chronology of developments
in nineteenth-century British music education is also included.
This book will be of interest to those studying the history of
instrumental teaching and Victorian music.
