Yehudi Menuhin shares with the reader his unique store of
understanding about the violin, about how to exercise and practise,
about the techniques of performance. His reflections on the nature
and scope of his instrument are profoundly illuminating and his
theories on interpretation particularly valuable. A section on the
violinist as teacher/student contains a fascinating transcript of a
lesson with Yehudi Menuhin, who also writes separately about the
violinist as orchestral player, leader, chamber music player,
recitalist and soloist. William Primrose writes the distinguished
monograph on the viola and describes the instrument as 'a violin
with a college education'. He was an acknowledged technical master
of the viola who, along with Lionel Tertis, was one of the finest
exponents of this beautiful instrument of the 20th century. Denis
Stevens, the British musicologist and specialist in early music,
provides and interesting chapter on the history of the violin and
looks in detail at the monumental challenge that is Bach's Six
Solos for Violin without Bass Accompaniment better known as the
Sonatas and Partitas for Violin.
